[R] how to call sas in R

[bogdan romocea]

Why don't you do the simulations in SAS? If you prefer otherwise,
setup the SAS code for running in batch mode (output and log
redirection), then call it from R with (on Windows, untested)
system("start ' ' C:\etc\sas.exe -sysin garch.sas") 
To keep the parameters from the estimate, have the SAS job output them
to a text file or data set.
