In the area of graphical visualization of data, Edward Tufte is a thought leader and has put forth many innovative ideas that enhance the understanding of the information in the graph with minimal distractions and potential for misinterpretation. One of his ideas has been the use of "Spark" plots. As per my
In this post, I will show you how to control the order of the entries in a legend and explicitly control the correspondence between groups and style elements in PROC SGPLOT. In many cases, the colors that are used to differentiate groups do not matter--the graph simply needs to display
Often I have written articles that are motivated by some question by a user on how to create a particular graph, or how to work around some shortcoming in the feature set to create the graph you need. This time, I got a question about Clinical Graphs that were mostly working
