The '''World Programming System''', also known as '''WPS''', is a software product developed by a company called [[World Programming]]. WPS allows users to create, edit and run [[computer programs|programs]] written in the [[SAS programming language]].
WPS can use programs developed with the [[SAS System]] without the need for translating them into any other language. It also follows that programs developed with WPS can be used with the SAS System. In this regard WPS is compatible with SAS.
The core of WPS is written in [[C++]]. It is this core that provides the support to process SAS
language elements and provides [[Porting|portability]] between different operating systems. WPS can be installed and used on mainframe computers running [[z/OS]] and personal computers and servers running [[Microsoft Windows]].
When installed on a Windows system, WPS has a [[graphical user interface]] (known as the '''WPS Workbench''') for managing, editing and running programs in the SAS language. The user interface is based on [[Eclipse (software)]].
