The sassy package is a meta-package that installs a set of functions that aim to make R easier for everyone, especially programmers whose primary experience is with SAS® software. These functions provide the ability to create data libraries, format catalogs, data dictionaries, a traceable log, and includes reporting capabilities reminiscent of those found in SAS®. These packages were written independently, and the authors have no association with, approval of, or endorsement by SAS® Institute.
The packages included in the sassy meta-package are as follows:
libr: Define a libname, view
data dictionaries, and simulate a data step.
fmtr: Create a format catalog
and apply formats to a data frame or vector.
logr: Generate a traceable log.
reporter: Write reports and output
in TXT, RTF, PDF, HTML, and DOCX.
common: A set of utility functions
shared across the sassy family of packages.
