proc gplot (graphing confidence intervals)

[lancearmstrong1313]

Hello:

Some background info on the problem:

mu'(c) = beta1 + 2*beta2*c
I am supposed to make 20 95% confidence intervals based on when c=.05, .10, .15......,.90, .95 and 1.

So basically mu'(c) = beta1 + beta2*.10 (when c=.05)
= beta1 + beta2*.20 (when c=.10)
= beta1 + beta2*.30 (when c=.15)
and so on.

I have been able to make a graph using proc gplot in which I have the upper bounds and lower bounds plotted. HOWEVER, I am supposed to connect each upper and lower bound (thus, my graph would have 20 vertical lines which represent the 95% confidence interval). I do not know how to connect the upper and lower bounds.

For example, I need to connect the lower and upper bound of c=.05. I need to connect the lower and upper bound of c=.10.......

Here is my code:

proc gplot data=c;
plot muprimec*c lower*c upper*c / overlay;
run;
quit;

Any help on how to do this?

what's the graph showing? I'm confused by what you mean when you say "connect"

Thanks, but I figured it out. I needed to use the interpol=hilo option. Basically I had 20 different values of some variable (c) and made 95% CI's based on what this value was (thus there were 20 different confidence intervals). I wanted to plot both the upper and lower bounds and connect the region between each lower/upper bound (hence, I would have 20 vertical lines representing the confidence interval). If you are curious as to what I am still talking about, my code is below.

data c;

input c lower upper muprimec;

label muprimex = "mu'(c)";
