Manual page for Script_examples_gallery_-_Range_bars(PL)

This page contains a series of rangebar examples illustrating the available varieties and options. These examples all use ploticus's proc rangebar.

See also the vdist prefab examples.



Example 1

rangebar1

Simple example. proc rangebar is invoked once for every bar that is to be displayed. The percentiles and medians are calcuated and displayed, and the "N=" summary is automatically provided.


Example 2

rangebar2

These boxplots follow the Tukey specifications for outlier display.


Example 3

ranges

Another example, where pairs of rangebars are done. The pairs are positioned using category scaling, with proc catslide providing a small offset for each bar within a pair.


Example 4

mouse

This example shows how proc rangebar can be used to compute the overall mean and standard deviation (the horizontal green lines), without actually drawing a rangebar. The bars are generated by proc bars.


Example 5

timely

This is an example of horizontal rangebars. These work nicely for displays looking at time intervals. In this example categories are used for the centers, and a #loop structure is used to display a bar for each center.


Example 6

errbar3

Proc rangebar may also be used to calculate mean and standard deviation, and render error bars.


Example 7

errbar4

An example of horizontal error bars.


Example 8

rangebar3

Here, outliers are displayed using line segments rather than symbols.


Example 9

distrib

Distribution of scores example.
