Key differences between SAS and Pascal

CharacteristicSASPascal
SyntaxSAS uses a data step and a proc step to process data. It has a verbose syntax with a focus on data manipulation and analysis.Pascal has a more structured syntax with a focus on procedural programming. It uses keywords like begin, end, and semicolons to define blocks of code.
ParadigmSAS is primarily used for data manipulation and analysis. It supports procedural programming.Pascal is a general-purpose programming language that supports procedural programming.
TypingSAS is a dynamically typed language.Pascal is a statically typed language.
PerformanceSAS is optimized for data manipulation and analysis. It provides efficient processing of large datasets.Pascal is a compiled language that can provide good performance for general-purpose programming tasks.
Libraries and frameworksSAS has a wide range of built-in libraries and frameworks for data manipulation, statistical analysis, and reporting.Pascal has a smaller set of libraries and frameworks compared to SAS, but it can leverage external libraries for various purposes.
Community and supportSAS has a large and active community with extensive documentation and support resources.Pascal has a smaller community compared to SAS, but it still has active forums and resources for support.
Learning curveSAS has a moderate learning curve, especially for data manipulation and analysis tasks.Pascal has a relatively low learning curve, especially for beginners in programming.
