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

  
    options linesize=80 pagesize=60 nonumber nodate;
 

In addition, the graphics output shown in Chapter 2 is produced with the following options:

Printed Version

Online Version

  
    goptions hpos=80 vpos=32 ypixels=800;
 

The remaining graphics options used in this book depend on the example that creates the output. The general options for the graphics output of Example 2.1 are as follows:

  
    goptions hsize=5.75 in vsize=4.0 in;
 

In addition, the following GOPTIONS and PATTERN statements are used to create the online (color) output for this example:

  
    goptions cback=ligr; 
    pattern1 v=s c=blue; 
    pattern2 v=e c=red; 
    pattern3 v=e c=magenta; 
    pattern4 v=e c=blue; 
    pattern5 v=e c=cyan;
 

The following PATTERN statement is used to create the black-and-white output, which appears in the printed version of the manual.

  
    pattern1 c=gray v=s r=5;
 

The general options for the graphics output of Example 2.2 are as follows:

  
    goptions hsize=5.75 in vsize=8.0 in;
 

In addition, the following GOPTIONS and PATTERN statements are used to create the online (color) output for this example:

  
    goptions cback=ligr; 
    pattern1 v=e c=blue; 
    pattern2 v=e c=red; 
    pattern3 v=e c=magenta; 
    pattern4 v=e c=blue; 
    pattern5 v=e c=cyan;
 

The following PATTERN statement is used to create the black-and-white output, which appears in the printed version of the manual.

  
    pattern1 c=black v=e r=5;
