Subject: New add-on component for CART 3.6 >>Tree Coder

Salford Systems' TreeCoder™:
SAS(R) Language Implementation of CART(R) Decision-Tree Rules

TreeCoder, bundled with all 128MB+ workspace compiles, is an add-on component
that implements CART trees as SAS(R) code.

TreeCoder automatically converts your tree into a SAS(R) macro that
implements the decision logic of the tree, including surrogates (rules
utilized if primary splitting value missing).  Critical for using your
CART trees in large scale production work, the resulting macro takes
as input some or all of the predictor variables and outputs the
terminal node assignment and predicted response.  In doing so,
TreeCoder eliminates errors due to hand coding of decision rules.
