Abstract:

SASweave comprises software that allows one to embed SAS code in a LaTeX document. After processing the document with SASweave, the SAS output and any graphs produced are added to the document. This guarantees that the output shown is exactly what is produced by the displayed code. SASweave is patterned after Sweave, which does the same thing for R (or S) code. In fact, SASweave incorporates Sweave, allowing both SAS and R statements and output to be embedded in the same document. The presentation will give an overview and several examples of its effective use.
