Oops. Revised post below.
Well, today's the day for the big parade here in Chicago for the World Series Champion Chicago Cubs, so here are a couple of short SAS programs to commemorate this once-every-108-years celebration. The first uses GTL statements - ellipseparm, polygonplot, and textplot - to chart the Cubs logo. And the second is an SGPLOT waterfall chart take on box score data from Chicago's game 7 victory over Cleveland, which shows the ups-and-downs of the Cubs lead over the Indians for every half-inning.
CODE - CUBS LOGO
* SAS ODS Graphics take on Chicago Cubs logo (Cubs color codes from teamcolorcodes.com);
data cubslogopoints;
input X Y@@; * Polygon points to mask part of red circle (make it "C" in "CUBS");
X=X-273; Y=Y-273; * Adjust x/y (model logo was 546x546 w/origin at 0,0);
ubs="UBS"; ubsX=187-273; ubsY=0; * Text string, x/y points for "UBS" part of "CUBS";
tm="TM"; tmX=400-270; tmY=273-325; * Text string, x/y points for "TM";

Oh, my. Baseball and statistics, America's great pastimes 😉
Love it
I work in DC but travelled to Chicago for the game. Love your graphics.
I used proc explode. Wish SAS would offer an improved banner like the ones you can get on the web. Those banners use mutiple different keys to form a more readable condensed banner.
*** *** *** * * **** *** *** ***
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
* * * * * * * * * * * *
* *** * * * * * *** * * *** * *
* * * * * * * * * * * * * *
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
*** *** *** *** **** *** *** ***
The banner looks a lot better in the old text editor widow with 8pt sasfont.
I use the banner to separate macros in my code.
If you type "xplo GOaCUBSaGO" on any clean command line in any window ie
program, log, output, note .. The banner will placed in the paste buffer.
The you can just paste it anywhere. The code is below.
%macro xplo ( AFSTR1 )/cmd ;
/*-----------------------------------------*\
| xplo GOaCUBSaGO |
| lower case letters produce spaces |
\*-----------------------------------------*/
note;notesubmit '%xploa';
%mend xplo;
%macro xploa
/ des = "Exploded Banner for Printouts";
options noovp;
title;
footnote;
%let uj=1;
%do %while(%scan(&afstr1.,&uj) ne );
%let uj=%eval(&uj+1);
%put uj= &uj;
%end;
data _null_;
rc=filename('__xplo', "%sysfunc(pathname(work))/__xplo");
if rc = 0 and fexist('__xplo') then rc=fdelete('__xplo');
rc=filename('__xplo');
rc=filename('__clp', "%sysfunc(pathname(work))/__clp");
if rc = 0 and fexist('__clp') then rc=fdelete('__clp');
rc=filename('__clp');
run;
filename ft15f001 "%sysfunc(pathname(work))/__xplo";
* format for proc explode;
data _null_;
file ft15f001;
%do ui=1 %to %eval(&uj-1);
put "D";
put " %scan(&afstr1.,&ui)";
%end;
run;
filename __clp "%sysfunc(pathname(work))/__clp";
proc printto print=__clp;
run;quit;
proc explode;
run;
filename ft15f001 clear;
run;quit;

How to create the banner
If you type xplo GoaCUBSaGO on any command line in the old
text editor, the text will be written to the paste buffer.
You can then paste it antwhere you want.
%macro xplo ( AFSTR1 )/cmd ;
/*-----------------------------------------*\
| xplo GO CUBS GO) |
| lower case letters produce spaces |
\*-----------------------------------------*/
note;notesubmit '%xploa';
%mend xplo;
%macro xploa
/ des = "Exploded Banner for Printouts";
options noovp;
title;
footnote;
%let uj=1;
%do %while(%scan(&afstr1.,&uj) ne );
%let uj=%eval(&uj+1);
%put uj= &uj;
%end;
data _null_;
rc=filename('__xplo', "%sysfunc(pathname(work))/__xplo");
if rc = 0 and fexist('__xplo') then rc=fdelete('__xplo');
rc=filename('__xplo');
rc=filename('__clp', "%sysfunc(pathname(work))/__clp");
if rc = 0 and fexist('__clp') then rc=fdelete('__clp');
rc=filename('__clp');
run;
filename ft15f001 "%sysfunc(pathname(work))/__xplo";
* format for proc explode;
data _null_;
file ft15f001;
%do ui=1 %to %eval(&uj-1);
put "D";
put " %scan(&afstr1.,&ui)";
%end;
run;
filename __clp "%sysfunc(pathname(work))/__clp";
proc printto print=__clp;
run;quit;
proc explode;
run;
filename ft15f001 clear;
run;quit;
proc printto;
run;quit;
filename __dm clipbrd ;
data _null_;
infile __clp;
file __dm;
input;
putlog _infile_;
put _infile_;
run;
filename __dm clear;
%mend xploa;
You can use PROC EXPLODE without messing with macro. See the SAS 9.1 documentation.
An example is
ods listing;
filename ft15f001 temp;
proc explode;
parmcards;
GO CUBS GO
;
Nice to still see a use for PROC EXPLODE now that lineflow is in the museum !
