SAS® Programmers who come to R are often frustrated with how difficult R can be to perform common tasks. Tasks which take a small amount of code in SAS® can take dozens or hundreds of lines of code in R. Instead of focusing on their analysis, programmers spend hours trying to accomplish a simple task like creating a log, loading data files into memory, or writing a half-way decent report. The sassy system was built for these programmers. The system offers a set of packages that make programming in R much more similar to programming in SAS®.
