Plotting large values in SGPLOT

sarahsasuser — Fri, 30 May 2014 15:49:19 GMT

Hi All,

I want to plot large data valus on the yaxis (100,000,000 to 900,000,000). SGPLOT displays them as 2E8 - 8E8. How do I get it to display the actual value? I have tried applying a format (BEST12.0) and I have used the discrete option. The discrete option is OK, but I would prefer that the values displayed as (100,000,000 to 900,000,000 by 10,000,000). How do I do this?

Thanks!

Sarah

If you want the commas then format the variable with the format you want to show by default.

Format youryvariablename comma13.;

and to control the actual values used for the tick values such as

yaxis values= (100000000 to 900000000 by 100000000) ;
