How to Transform a Skewed Distribution to a Uniform Distribution

This post demonstrates how to rank data and how to place these ranks into roughly equal groups. There are certain variables, such as annual salary, that are highly skewed. There are many who earn between $50,00 and $150,000, but some who earn millions or hundreds of millions of dollars a […]

IoT: Monitoring the M&M supply in our breakroom

My buddy Chris recently blogged about accessing the IoT data from an M&M jar being monitored in one of the breakrooms at SAS. Now I’m going to take things a step further and analyze that data with some graphs. Grab a snack, and follow along, as we …

A graph for Trump – our oldest president

Recently, my fellow SAS blogger Rick Wicklin wrote a post showing how to graph the ages of all the US presidents. And Chris Hemedinger showed how to create a bar chart showing the number of presidents having each of the 12 zodiac signs. Both are interesting graphs, but I wanted to […]

Example 10.3: Enhanced scatterplot with marginal histograms

Back in example 8.41 we showed how to make a graphic combining a scatterplot with histograms of each variable. A commenter suggested we change the R graphic to allow post-hoc plotting of, for example, lowess lines. In addition, there are further refi…

Example 8.41: Scatterplot with marginal histograms

The scatterplot is one of the most ubiquitous, and useful graphics. It’s also very basic. One of its shortcomings is that it can hide important aspects of the marginal distributions of the two variables. To address this weakness, you can add a histo…

Example 8.40: Side-by-side histograms

It’s often useful to compare histograms for some key variable, stratified by levels of some other variable. There are several ways to display something like this. The simplest may be to plot the two histograms in separate panels.SASIn SAS, the most d…
