SAS当然可以做大数据，SPSS当然不行

做大数据，估计经常需要编程的，那么需要适合编程，能够尽量利用计算机系统的资源的软件。 我倾向于MATLAB，和R。 SAS的安装非常笨重，其编程的优势也还没有看到。

我突然觉得自己这么专心学spss属于直接被拍死在起跑线了……

Problem(Abstract)

What is the maximum number of cases that I can have in an SPSS dataset?

Resolving the problem


SPSS 32 bit can hold up to 2 billion cases in a dataset.

SPSS 64 bit has no real limitation except the specifications of your computer.

The exact number and its calculation is arrived at in the following way.

The file format includes a count of the cases in a 32-bit signed integer. Since one bit is devoted to the sign, the largest number that can be stored there is 2**(31)-1 (2 to the 31st power minus one), or 2,147,493,647.

Remember that the operating system probably keeps the size of each file in bytes in the same kind of integer, so users will likely run into that limit before they hit ours.
