Version 9 of SAS/STAT software brings you a variety of new tools for your statistical computing needs. The Power and Sample Size Application (PSS) provides sample size and power computations for a variety of analyses through a web interface. Experimental software in Version 9 moves SAS/STAT in new directions, including robust regression, which is supported by the ROBUSTREG procedure, and logistic regression for sample survey data, available with the SURVEYLOGISTIC procedure. In response to user requests, a number of procedures have been enhanced significantly. Conditional logistic regression is available in the LOGISTIC procedure through the new STRATA statement, and scoring of data sets is available through the new SCORE statement. New features in several other procedures are also discussed.
