The GCONTOUR Procedure

PROC GCONTOUR Statement

Identifies the data set that contains the plot variables. Can also specify an annotate data set, an output catalog and the incomplete option.

Requirements:

An input data set is required.

Syntax

PROC GCONTOUR <DATA= input-data-set>
<ANNOTATE=Annotate-data-set >
<GOUT=<libref.>output-catalog>
<INCOMPLETE>;

Options

PROC GCONTOUR statement options affect all graphs produced by the procedure.

ANNOTATE=Annotate-data-set ANNO=Annotate-data-set

specifies a data set to annotate all graphs produced by the GCONTOUR procedure. To annotate individual graphs, use the ANNOTATE= option in the action statement.

Restriction:	Partially supported by Java and ActiveX
See also:	Using Annotate Data Sets

DATA=input-data-set

specifies the SAS data set that contains the variables to plot. The procedure uses the most recently created SAS data set if none is specified.

SAS Data Sets and Concepts

GOUT=<libref.>output-catalog

specifies the SAS catalog in which to save the graphics output that is produced by the GCONTOUR procedure. If you omit the libref, SAS/GRAPH looks for the catalog in the temporary library called WORK and creates the output catalog if it does not exist.

INCOMPLETE

allows the plotting of data when values are missing for more than half of the z variable in the input data set.

Restriction:

Not supported by Java and ActiveX
