SAS/IML
< SAS
IML is an Interactive Matrix Programming Language for SAS. This is similar to R, Matlab and Stata/Mata language. You deal with matrix and you can perform any operation on those matrix.

Optimization
[edit | edit source]IML includes lots of optimization routines.
Random Number Generation

seed = 123456;
c = j(5,1,seed);
b = uniform(c);
print b;
