SAS Institute. The Power to Know

SAS/QC(R) 9.2 User's Guide


Using This Book

Conventions for Examples

Most of the output shown in this book is produced with the following SAS System options:

  
    options linesize=80 pagesize=200 nonumber nodate;
 

The STATISTICAL style is used to create the HTML output and graphs that appears in the online documentation. A style template controls stylistic elements such as colors, fonts, and presentation attributes. The style template is specified in the ODS HTML statement as follows:

  
    ods html style=statistical;
 

See Chapter 21, "Statistical Graphics Using ODS," (SAS/STAT User's Guide) for more information about styles.

If you run the examples, you might get slightly different output. This is a function of the SAS System options used and the precision used by your computer for floating-point calculations.

The following GOPTIONS statement is used to create traditional graphics output.

  
    filename GSASFILE 'file-specification'; 
    goptions gsfname = GSASFILE 
             gsfmode = replace 
             fileonly 
             dev     = png 
             htext   = 4.0pct 
             htitle  = 4.5pct 
             hsize   = 4.5in 
             border 
             horigin = 0in 
             vorigin = 0in ;
