How to use this tool?
This free online converter lets you convert code from Scala to SAS in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
- Type or paste your Scala code in the input box.
- Click the convert button.
- The resulting SAS code from the conversion will be displayed in the output box.
Examples
The following are examples of code conversion from Scala to SAS using this converter. Note that you may not always get the same code since it is generated by an AI language model which is not 100% deterministic and gets updated from time to time.
Example 1 - Is String Palindrome
Program that checks if a string is a palindrome or not.

SAS
Example 2 - Even or Odd
A well commented function to check if a number if odd or even.

Key differences between Scala and SAS
Characteristic | Scala | SAS |
---|---|---|
Syntax | Scala has a concise and expressive syntax that is similar to Java but with some functional programming features. | SAS has a verbose syntax that is similar to SQL and requires more code to accomplish tasks. |
Paradigm | Scala is a multi-paradigm language that supports both object-oriented and functional programming. | SAS is primarily a procedural language with some support for object-oriented programming. |
Typing | Scala is a statically typed language that supports type inference. | SAS is a dynamically typed language. |
Performance | Scala is known for its high performance and scalability, especially when used with the Akka framework for concurrency and distributed computing. | SAS is optimized for data processing and analysis but may not be as performant as other languages for general-purpose programming tasks. |
Libraries and frameworks | Scala has a rich ecosystem of libraries and frameworks, including Akka, Play, and Spark. | SAS has a large collection of built-in functions and procedures for data processing and analysis, but may not have as many third-party libraries and frameworks as other languages. |
Community and support | Scala has a growing community and is supported by companies such as Lightbend and IBM. | SAS has a large and established community, with support from SAS Institute and a network of users and developers. |
Learning curve | Scala has a steeper learning curve than some other languages due to its functional programming features and complex syntax. | SAS has a relatively low learning curve, especially for users familiar with SQL and data analysis concepts. |
