Hello, my question is fairly involved but I would appreciate any help anyone
can offer.  I would like to draw 500 random samples of size 20 from an
exponential distribution with 7 different means.  (total 3500)  Next, I want
to test the equality of the survival distributions within each group of 7
(only 2 at a time) using logrank and Wilcoxon.  What I want to end up with is
the number of times the null hypothesis is rejected in 500 trials.  Basically
all I need in the output is that number or just the p-values so I can count
them.  The comparisons within the 7 different means would be group 1 vs 2, 1
vs 3,........, 1 vs 7.  I have the manuals here at home so feel free to cite
them.  Is this possible to do in SAS?  Thank you in advance for any help.
