About Crosswords SAS Prize #1 SAS Prize #2 SAS Coffee #1 SAS Coffee #2

 

This was our October 2003 Prize Crossword, won by Eric Yount from the US. Eric won a free, one-year licence for complementSoft's ASAP - the innovative tool for automatically producing data flow diagrams of your SAS code.
This prize crossword is loosely based upon the style of traditional British cryptic crosswords. However, we have not used the traditional symmetrical grid - we're IT consultants, not professional crossword compilers!

Clues may not mean what they say, but they do say what they mean! Watch out for anagrams, answers within words or phrases, plus abbreviations and initials.

Three additional clues were published before a winner was found. These are shown below the crossword and its standard clues (you may want to challenge yourself to solving the crossword without the additional clues).
