Proportion Testing in SAS and R

If tests of proportions are needed for various levels of summary of data, you can use SAS to create a file that can be used by R to run proportion tests. For example, if you have data summarized by race, age groups, and some other variable, and you want to test the rates or proportions for each value of the variable for each race, age group, and race-age group combination with the population estimates for a particular year, you can summarize the data and merge with SAS, then create a file with the R commands.
