Subject: Fun and Games and PROC IML

Dear SAS-l-ers,
With all of the recent discussions of PROC IML, I thought that I would go to the SAS for Windows PROC IML sample library and take it for a spin. (I don't normally use SAS/IML in my work at SAS Mecca).
C:\Program Files\SAS92\SASFoundation\9.2\iml\sample
And, what did I find, but a clever program that shows yet again that the brainiacs at the SAS Institute have a great sense of humor:
worm.sas
If you have SAS/IML loaded on the SAS configuration on your Windows workstation, run that program in SAS Display Manager. Beforehand, be sure to:
1. Change "YELLOW" to "RED" on line 65 (for a display that is easier on the eyes)
2. Make sure that you turn your PC sound on
Have fun!
Best of luck in all your SAS endeavors!
I hope that this suggestion proves helpful now, and in the future!
