<p>I think it belongs on the site. As another example of a question similar to the SAS question, consider this question on how to <a href="https://stats.stackexchange.com/questions/2162/r-how-to-draw-a-line-or-add-a-text-outside-of-the-plot-area">use R</a> to draw a particular type of plot. </p>

<p>Both types of questions deal with how to use the software (R, SAS) to perform a type of operation (draw plot, import data) that is needed as part of a data analysis project.</p>

<p>I voted to re-open.</p>
