The LIFEREG Procedure

ODS Graphics

Statistical procedures use ODS Graphics to create graphs as part of their output. ODS Graphics is described in detail in Chapter 21, Statistical Graphics Using ODS.

Before you create graphs, ODS Graphics must be enabled (for example, with the ODS GRAPHICS ON statement). For more information about enabling and disabling ODS Graphics, see the section Enabling and Disabling ODS Graphics in Chapter 21, Statistical Graphics Using ODS.

The overall appearance of graphs is controlled by ODS styles. Styles and other aspects of using ODS Graphics are discussed in the section A Primer on ODS Statistical Graphics in Chapter 21, Statistical Graphics Using ODS.

Some graphs are produced by default; other graphs are produced by using statements and options.

ODS Graph Names

PROC LIFEREG assigns a name to each graph it creates using ODS. You can use these names to reference the graphs when using ODS. The names of the graphs that PROC LIFEREG generates are listed in Table 50.8, along with the required statements and options.
