Please help me to convert the following sas code to macros

1, proc gchart data=HTWT ;

vbar gender/sumvar=weight;

Title" Average weigt by Gender";

2, proc plot data=HTWT;

Title"Scatter plot";

plot &height*&weight;

run;

The macro should have parameters, here you have dsetin, height and weight as positional parameters. if in these parameters if you pass the dataset name and variable names you will get graph

%macro plot(dsetin,height,weight);
proc gplot data=&dsetin;
     Title"Scatter plot";
     plot &height*&weight;
     run;
%mend;


%plot(HTWT,height,weight);

similarly you could try for the other

Proc GCHART and PLOT are old. If you're developing actual working code I would recommend a switch to SGPLOT.
