English abstract:
      The purpose of this article was to introduce the likelihood ratio test, six nonparametric tests, and the SAS implementation of the survival data. Based on the assumption that the survival data had the exponential distribution, the likelihood ratio test method was derived, the main difference between six nonparametric test methods was that they had different weight functions. Under the conditions of non-stratification and stratification, the seven survival data hypothesis testing methods mentioned above could be used, and their common point was that their test statistics all followed the χ2 distribution. Through two examples and by means of the SAS software, the article realized the various hypothesis tests for two or more groups of survival data, outputed and explained SAS calculation results, and made statistical and professional conclusions.
