If you specify more than one variable for any of the axes, one plot is produced for each combination of variables.

You must specify one or more x-axis variables and one or more y-axis variables. For three-dimensional plots, you must specify one or more z-axis variables.

For a two-dimensional scatter plot, specify a class variable to define subgroups. Each level of the class variable is represented by a different symbol on the scatter plot.
