Concepts Learned From Our Programming Cousins

SAS® Programmers have an extensive catalog of references available to them through the SAS Bookstore, but very few explore the process of developing disciplined, structured programs and applications. Training opportunities for clinical programmers are often even more limited in this regard. We have opportunities to learn details about existing or new features or modules, but rarely about the fundamentals of our craft. For those, we have to venture into the exciting and enlightening libraries of our cousins developing C and Java applications.
