This tutorial explains how to create bar charts in SAS, including several examples. A bar chart presents categorical data with rectangular bars where the height of the bars is proportional to the value they represent. Bar charts are useful to compare metric values across different (sub)groups of your data.
So, how do you create a bar chart in SAS? The easiest way to create a bar chart in SAS is with the SGPLOT procedure. The CHART procedure produces vertical and horizontal bar charts, block charts, pie charts, and star charts. These types of charts graphically display values of a variable or a statistic associated with those values.
The charted variable can be numeric or character. PROC CHART is a useful tool that lets you visualize data quickly, but if you need to produce presentation. A bar chart is an excellent.
A bar chart represents data in rectangular bars with length of the bar proportional to the value of the variable. SAS uses the procedure PROC SGPLOT to create bar charts. We can draw both simple and stacked bars in the bar chart.
In bar chart each of the bars can be given different colors. This example page demonstrate a basic example of how to draw simple and more advanced bar charts in SAS with PROC SGPLOT. The bar chart in SAS is some of the most commonly used graphs to convey information to the reader.
Bar charts are used across all domains, including business, finance, banking, clinical and health, and life sciences. In bar charts, the scale of values of the chart statistic is displayed on the response axis. By default, the response axis is divided into evenly spaced intervals identified with major tick marks that are labeled with the corresponding statistic value.
