Hi everyone.
I am about to enter a Masters in Stats program that has a heavy SAS computing component including a development project. I am happy about this becasue SAS is pretty much the industry standard in statistical software packages.
In addition I would like to keep improving my c++ chops. Right now I only have 2 quarters of c++ but would like to keep improving and learning.
A couple questions:
1) It seems like the job market wants either c++ programmers or SAS programmers but really has no need for a person with both skills. Is this true?
2) Which c++ courses should I take that would best prepare me for the fin eng job market (i.e. what material should I be trying to learn)?
Thanks everyone. Any advice on career development is always appreciated!
