    process all the elements of an array in a SAS program
    create variables in an array in SAS
    perform calculations using arrays and the keyword OF in SAS
    assign initial values in an ARRAY statement in SAS
    use the TRANSPOSE procedure to manipulate data sets in SAS
  • use the TRANSPOSE procedure to rotate data sets in SAS
    perform a match-merge on SAS data sets

    merge data sets with no common variable by using a series of separate DATA steps
    use SAS/ACCESS LIBNAME to match-merge a SAS data set with an Excel workbook
    use RENAME to match-merge data sets with same-named variables
