Abstract

Nonparametric bootstrap statistical inference is a robust computer intensive method for generating estimates of statistical variability for which formulae are not known or asymptotic assumptions are not met. A SAS macro that implements simple nonparametric bootstrap statistical inference is presented with an example. The program code is easily generalized to any SAS procedure which includes a BY statement, and to cases of clustered data.
