The question

I am a visual learner and I prefer reading a physical book rather than just scrolling through online documentation. What are the 'bibles' of SAS base programming that cover everything needed for the certification? I want something that includes plenty of examples and practice questions.

Verified summary

The SAS Certification Prep Guide: Base Programming for SAS 9 is the primary resource for exam preparation as it directly aligns with official certification objectives.

Stop looking for a single bible because SAS certification is about syntax memorization rather than actual programming intuition. Get the SAS Certification Prep Guide: Base Programming for SAS 9, as it is the only text that mirrors the exam objectives closely enough to matter.
