What is a SAS Data Set? A table, created in or for SAS, that SAS can recognize and knows how to process. It is usually created from datalines in one's code, or as the result of data extraction/manipulation from either a database, a SAS dataset, an external raw file or another program
What is a SAS Data Step? A programming step used in SAS to perform data manipulation activities and as a result creates a SAS dataset
Data Step Processing
Datastep processing consists of 2 phases.
o Compilation Phase o Execution Phase
Compilation Phase
During this phase, each of the statements within the data step are scanned for syntax errors.
Descriptor portion of SAS dataset gets created at the end of compilation phase
Following are the other 2 objects which get created at the end of compilation phase
o Input Buffer o PDV
