Code Reuse

One principle of good software development is code reuse. If you need to repeat a certain kind of analysis, create a macro to repeat the analysis and call the macro from the code. Depending on the scope that you envision for this macro, you might want to leave it within the current file, separate it to its own file, or include it within pre-existing macro files like the Utility Macros.sas file that comes with the software. Be sure to upload any new files that you create to the appropriate folder under your JMP Genomics installation.
