Join fellow SAS language fans for an informal chat about our favourite analytics language, including a short presentation on the topic of:
Being fluent in multiple tools is no longer optional—it’s essential. While R and Python dominate headlines, the SAS language continues to play a vital role in enterprise analytics, regulatory compliance, and mission-critical applications. Caroline's presentation explores the strengths and evolving role of SAS code in a modern, multi-language (polyglot) data science environment. We’ll discuss when and why SAS remains the language of choice, how it integrates with open-source languages, and strategies for building a flexible, future-proof analytics stack. Whether you're a seasoned SAS coder or exploring tool interoperability, discover why the future belongs to the polyglot practitioner.
