SAS/C was a professional C compiler suite for the Amiga platform that evolved from Lattice C after being acquired by the SAS Institute. It became the de facto standard for commercial Amiga software development, offering an optimizing compiler, comprehensive standard libraries, and advanced debugging capabilities. The development package included the compiler, linker, librarian, and the SAS/C Development System IDE, supporting both standard 68000 and advanced 68020/68881/68882 instruction sets with extensive optimization options.
