This example uses PROC G3D to produce a surface plot that reveals the shape of a generated data set named HAT. The PLOT statement in this example relies entirely on procedure defaults.

The graphics output in the Results tab was produced using SASĀ® 9.2. Submitting the sample code with releases of SAS prior to SAS 9.2 might produce different results.
/* Set the graphics environment */
goptions reset=all border cback=white htitle=12pt;
/* Create the data set HAT */
data hat;
do x=-5 to 5 by 0.25;
do y=-5 to 5 by 0.25;
z=sin(sqrt(x*x+y*y));
output;
end;
end;
run;
/* Define a title for the plot */
title1 'Surface Plot of HAT Data Set';
/* Create the plot */
proc g3d data=hat;
plot y*x=z;
run;
quit;
