Example 15.1 Scatter Plot Matrix

With the viewport capability of the IML graphics subroutine, you can arrange several graphs on a page. In this example, multiple graphs are generated from three variables and are displayed in a scatterplot matrix. For each variable, one contour plot is generated with each of the other variables as the dependent variable. For the graphs on the main diagonal, a box-and-whiskers plot is generated for each variable.

This example takes advantage of user-defined IML modules:

BOXWHSKR

computes median and quartiles.

GBXWHSKR

draws box-and-whiskers plots.

CONTOUR

generates confidence ellipses assuming bivariate normal data.

GCONTOUR

draws the confidence ellipses for each pair of variables.

GSCATMAT

produces the scatter plot matrix, where is the number of variables.

The code for the five modules and a sample data set follow. The modules produce Figure 15.1.1 and Figure 15.1.2.
