The
Track Bar Chart
process uses a SAS data set as input to create a settings (
.sas
) file that defines a track consisting of a
bar chart
of a quantitative
variable
. This
settings file
can then be selected as a
track file
for embellishing various graphics plotted along a
genome
.
A single SAS
Input Data Set
, which contains a numeric histogram variable, is
required
. The histogram variable contains the heights of each histogram bar, and should be specified as the
Y Variable
.
The
huex_1_mn_trimmed_bew_iqr_amr.sas7bdat
data set represents a subset of an IQR-normalized SAS data set (generated
from Affymetrix human
exon
data that is available in the JMP Genomics
Sample Data\Copy Number
folder,
using the
Basic Exon/Alternative Splicing Workflow
), and serves as an example. It is partially shown below.
An additional data set, the
Annotation Data Set
, is
optional
unless the input data set does not contain relevant annotation information. This data set contains information such as gene identity or chromosomal location, for each of the markers.
For detailed information about the files and data sets used or created by JMP Life Sciences software, see
Files and Data Sets
.
Running the
Track Bar Chart
process results in the generation of the
TrackBarChart_-log10p Tissue by Probeset.sas
settings file, whose path is displayed in a
JMP Genomics Message
window.
