SAS 新手 - 需要入门帮助
我的部门在大型机/批处理环境（即丑陋的 JCL 绿屏）中维护基于 SAS 的各种作业和报告。
我参加了 SAS 研究所的一项昂贵的培训计划。培训的第一部分要求我从 zip 文件安装文件。 “打开 SAS”并运行一些文件。我无法“打开 SAS”，因为我没有它。它嵌入在主机上。
它们提供了一些在 z/OS 中工作的极其有限的指令。但我什至无法弄清楚如何制作数据集以将学习文件放入其中等基础知识。他们确实不提供任何指导。他们假设您已经知道如何使用 SAS。
无论如何，培训展示了在 Windows 中使用 SAS Enterprise Guide 的示例。我想得到它并使用它，至少是为了学习 SAS 语言。但当我打电话给 SAS 只是想知道这是否是免费下载，或者如果不是的话，需要多少钱时，他们说他们会给我回电话，但从未这样做过。所以我只是想知道获得这个工具需要花费多少钱。另外，如果我有该工具，我是否能够使用它来访问我已有的（在大型机上）Base SAS 上的作业，或者我是否必须购买另一个适用于 Windows 的 Base SAS？我无法通过 Google 搜索找到这些问题的答案，SAS 公司也没有给我回电话。有更了解这方面知识的人可以帮助我吗？
My department maintains all sorts of jobs and reports based on SAS, in a mainframe/batch environment (ie ugly JCL green screens).
I have been enrolled in an expensive training program from the SAS Institute. One of the first parts of the training asks me to install files from a zip file. "Open SAS" and run some files. I can't "open SAS" because I don't have it. It is embedded on the mainframe.
They provide some extremely limited instructions to work in z/OS. but I can't even figure out the basics like how to make a dataset to put the learning file into. They really give no guidance. They assume you already know how to use SAS.
Anyway, the training shows examples in Windows using SAS Enterprise Guide. I would like to get that and use it instead, at least for learning the SAS language. But when I called SAS just to find out if that is a free download, or if not how much it would cost, they said they would call me back and never did. So I just want to know a ballpark for how much it would cost me to get this tool. Also, if I had that tool, would I be able to use it to access the jobs on the Base SAS that I already have (on the mainframe) or would I have to purchase another Base SAS for Windows? I haven't been able to find answers to these questions via a Google search, and the SAS company didn't call me back. Can anyone with more knowledge about this help me out?

据我所知，SAS Institute 不向个人提供他们的软件。他们与组织合作，每年的许可证可能花费数万到数十万美元，具体取决于所包含的组件以及处理器或用户的数量。
有残缺软件 SAS 学习版，但他们停产了。
我想知道您是否可以要求退还昂贵的培训课程。或者，您可以尝试在大型机上以批处理模式运行 SAS 脚本。有一些针对 IDE 的第三方解决方案，例如 EMACS Speaks Statistics (ESS)。您将失去数据集查看器等功能。
As far as I know, SAS Institute does not provide their software to individuals. They work with organizations and the yearly licence could cost tens to hundreds thousand dollars, depending on the components included and the number of processors or users.
There was crippleware SAS Learning Edition but they discontinued it.
I wonder if you can ask for refund for your expensive training program. Alternatively, you can try to run SAS scripts in batch mode on your mainframe. There are some third-party solutions for IDE like EMACS Speaks Statistics (ESS). You will lose functionality like dataset viewer.
