read.sas {spsurvey} | R Documentation |
This function reads either a SAS dataset or a SAS XPORT (transport) file and creates a data frame.
read.sas(filename, libname=NULL, xport=FALSE, sascmd="/Program Files/SAS/SAS 9.1/sas.exe")
filename |
if xport equals TRUE, a character string giving the full path to the SAS XPORT file, which must include the file extension. If xport equals FALSE, either a character string giving the the name of a dataset in the SAS library or a vector of character strings giving the names of datasets in the SAS library, where the dataset names cannot exceed eight characters in length and do not include the file extension. |
libname |
a character string defining the SAS library, which is usually a directory reference. If xport equals FALSE and the dataset(s) named in argument filename do not reside in the working directory, then this argument is required. The default value is NULL. |
xport |
a logical value indicating whether the input file is a SAS XPORT file. The default value is FALSE. |
sascmd |
a character string giving the full path to SAS executable. This argument is required only when xport equals FALSE. The default value is "C:/Program Files/SAS/SAS 9.1/sas.exe". |
Either a single data frame or a list of data frames.
