Modify the Macro Put legend of the figure Change the figure screen size Format the rate with 2 decimals Refine title of table and figure by the caption of variable (not the variable name, such as edu) Change the x-axis to real years Flexible on generating any years report

Issues: WARNING: Apparent invocation of macro BOXPLOT not resolved. WARNING: This CREATE TABLE statement recursively references the target table. A consequence of this is a possible data integrity problem. Data allstas – change label 1,2,3 to real levels Two decimal for rate Create Legend Automatic run Matlab and latex

Issues an operating-environment command from within a SAS session In a windowing session, the X command works exactly like the X statement except that you issue the command from a command line. You submit the X statement from the Program Editor window. The X statement is similar to the SYSTEM function, the X command, and the CALL SYSTEM routine. In most cases, the X statement, X command or %SYSEXEC macro statement are preferable because they require less overhead. However, the SYSTEM function can be executed conditionally. The X statement is a global statement and executes as a DATA step is being compiled.

Matlab-List of Startup Options for Windows Platforms. Description /c licensefile Set LM_LICENSE_FILE to licensefile. It can have the form port@host. /logfile logfilename Automatically write output from MATLAB to the specified log file. /minimize Start MATLAB with the desktop minimized. Any desktop tools or documents that were undocked when MATLAB was last closed will not be minimized upon startup. /nosplash Start MATLAB without displaying the MATLAB splash screen. /r MATLAB_file Automatically run the specified MATLAB M-file, either commands supplied with MATLAB or your own M-files, immediately after MATLAB starts. This is also referred to as calling MATLAB in batch mode. Separate multiple commands with commas or semicolons (;). M-files must be on the MATLAB path or in the MATLAB startup directory. Do not include the pathname or a file extension.

Matlab - List of Startup Options for UNIX Platforms. Description -h or -help Display startup options (without starting MATLAB). -logfile log Automatically write output from MATLAB to the specified log file. -nodesktop Start MATLAB without bringing up the MATLAB desktop. Use this option to run without an X-window, for example, in VT100 mode, or in batch processing mode. Note that if you pipe to MATLAB using the > constructor, the nodesktop option is used automatically. With nodesktop, you can still use most development environment tools by starting them via a function. For example, use preferences to open the Preferences dialog box and helpbrowser to open the Help browser. Do not use nodesktop to provide a command line interface. If you prefer a command line interface, select Desktop > Desktop Layout > Command Window > Only. -nosplash Start MATLAB without displaying the splash screen during startup. -r MATLAB_command Automatically run the specified MATLAB M-file, either commands supplied with MATLAB or your own M-files, immediately after MATLAB starts. This is also referred to as calling MATLAB in batch mode. Separate multiple commands with commas or semicolons (;). M-files must be on the MATLAB path or in the MATLAB startup directory. Do not include the pathname or a file extension.
