The BOXPLOT Procedure |
INSETGROUP Statement |
Each PLOT statement in the BOXPLOT procedure is followed by a series of zero or more INSET and INSETGROUP statements. Each INSETGROUP statement in that series displays statistics associated with individual groups in the box plot produced by the preceding PLOT statement. No more than two INSETGROUP statements can be associated with a given PLOT statement: one that displays group statistics above the box plot and one that displays group statistics below it. The data requested using the keywords are displayed in the order in which they are specified.
identify summary statistics to be displayed in the insets. By default, inset statistics are identified with appropriate labels, and numeric values are printed using appropriate formats. However, you can provide customized labels and formats. You provide the customized label by specifying the keyword for that statistic followed by an equal sign (=) and the label in quotes. Labels can have up to 24 characters. You provide the numeric format in parentheses after the keyword. Note that if you specify both a label and a format for a statistic, the label must appear before the format. The keywords are listed in Table 24.3.
control the appearance of the insets. Table 24.4 lists all the options in the INSETGROUP statement. Complete descriptions for each option follow.
Keyword |
Description |
---|---|
MEAN |
group mean |
MIN |
group minimum value |
MAX |
group maximum value |
N |
number of observations in group |
NHIGH |
number of outliers above upper fence |
NLOW |
number of outliers below lower fence |
NOUT |
total number of outliers in group |
Q1 |
first quartile of group values |
Q2 |
second quartile of group values |
Q3 |
third quartile of group values |
RANGE |
range of group values |
STDDEV |
group standard deviation |
Table 24.4 lists the options available in the INSETGROUP statement.
Option |
Description |
---|---|
CFILL=color | BLANK |
specifies color of inset background |
CFILLH=color |
specifies color of inset header background |
CFRAME=color |
specifies color of inset frame |
CHEADER=color |
specifies color of inset header text |
CTEXT=color |
specifies color of inset text |
FONT=font |
specifies font of inset text |
FORMAT=format |
specifies format of values in inset |
HEADER='string' |
specifies inset header text |
HEIGHT=value |
specifies height of inset and header text |
NOFRAME |
suppresses frame around inset |
POSITION=position |
specifies position of inset |
Following are descriptions of the options that you can specify in the INSETGROUP statement after a slash (/).
specifies the color of the inset background (including the header background if you do not specify the CFILLH= option). If you do not specify the CFILL= option, then by default the background is empty.
specifies the color of the header background. By default, if you do not specify a CFILLH= color, the CFILL= color is used.
specifies the color of the frame around the inset. By default, the frame is the same color as the axis of the plot.
specifies the color of the header text. By default, if you do not specify a CHEADER= color, the CTEXT= color is used.
specifies the color of the inset text. By default, the inset text color is the same as the other text in the plot.
specifies the font of the inset text. By default, the font is SIMPLEX.
specifies a format for all the values displayed in an inset. If you specify a format for a particular statistic, then this format overrides the format you specified with the FORMAT= option.
specifies the header text. The string can be up to 40 characters. If you do not specify the HEADER= option, no header line appears in the inset.
determines the position of the inset. Valid positions are TOP, TOPOFF, AXIS, and BOTTOM. By default, POSITION=TOP.
Position Keyword |
Description |
---|---|
TOP |
top of plot, immediately above axis frame |
TOPOFF |
top of plot, offset from axis frame |
AXIS |
bottom of plot, immediately above horizontal axis |
BOTTOM |
bottom of plot, below horizontal axis label |
