Question

how do you make a vertical bar chart on sas 9.4 with hours per week on the y axis and education on the x-axis?

a vertical BOX chart im sorry

Answer 1

Hello! Since both bar chart and vertical box are mentioned giving the base code declaration for both , followed by the code to create the box chart. Use the appropriate one.

Below are the type of declarations used to create a CHART on SAS

GCHART bar, pie, block, donut, star charts
GPLOT scatter, bubble, line, area, box, regression plots
G3D 3-D scatter and surface plots
GCONTOUR contour plots
GMAP maps with user-defined data

Below is the code for creating the Box chart

/* Open the LISTING destination and assign the LISTING style to the graph */
ods listing style=listing;
ods graphics / width=5in height=2.81in;
title 'Education Analysis';

/* Run PROC SGPLOT on data STUDENT.EDUCATION, selecting for type of subject */
proc sgplot data=student.education(where=(type in ('Maths' 'Chemistry'))) ;
/* generate a vertical box plot that groups by education type
* and shows hours per week */
vbox Hours_per_week / category=origin group=type groupdisplay=cluster
lineattrs=(pattern=solid) whiskerattrs=(pattern=solid);
xaxis display=(nolabel);
yaxis grid;
keylegend / location=inside position=topright across=1;
run;

Table name : student

Column name : education,Hours_per_week

Hope your question is resolved. Cheers :)
