Today we used SAS visual analytics to make our own graphs. We also learned a bit about SAS programming and how to sort data sets.
This was one of the most interesting days because we got to see what the SAS data scientists do on a daily basis, and how those colorful graphs are made. I think we oftentimes don’t appreciate the time, labor, and effort that goes into the data reports we see every day. The SAS programming also opened my eyes as to how data analytics could be used to optimize profit and find hard to see trends. While this post is short, today was one of the most action packed days, it’s just easy to sum up in a few words.
Dr. Inman, a data scientist at SAS said something pretty profound: “The most important trait in a data scientist is humility. The willingness to continually question themselves and their work” Wow.
There was also chicken and waffles for lunch.
wow sounds like a joyus day to me. I enjoy waffles too!
