SAS/GRAPH Software: Reference

Overview

In general, SAS/GRAPH programs work like other SAS programs: the SAS/GRAPH procedures use data from SAS data sets to produce output - in this case, graphics output. In addition, SAS/GRAPH programs define the output environment and control the format and destination of the graphics output. This chapter discusses SAS/GRAPH programs and explains how they produce graphics output. It describes

the language elements used by SAS/GRAPH programs
ways of running SAS/GRAPH programs
where and how procedure output is produced
how to control certain attributes of the procedure output.

For information on using and managing SAS/GRAPH output, see SAS/GRAPH Output; for information on using SAS/GRAPH programs to create other kinds of graphics output, see About Exporting SAS/GRAPH Output. For information on bringing SAS/GRAPH output to the Web, see Bringing SAS/GRAPH Output to the Web.
