This course teaches you how to produce high-quality presentation graphics using SAS/GRAPH software.

The self-study e-learning includes:

• Annotatable course notes in PDF format.
• Virtual Lab time to practice.

Изучается

• design graphs that describe data in the most appropriate fashion
• customize default graphic elements such as axes and legends
• apply annotations that supplement the features that are available with SAS/GRAPH procedures
• deliver graphs in multiple formats, such as static image files and client-generated images.

Аудитория

SAS users who must use SAS program code to generate graphs in batch or noninteractive execution environments, such as SAS Stored Processes, or those who need to produce a large quantity of graphs with minimal user interaction
