\maketitle
The famous (Fisher's or Anderson's) iris data set gives the measurements in centimeters of the variables
sepal length and width, and petal length and width, respectively, for 50 flowers from each of
3 species of iris. The species are \emph{setosa, versicolor, virginica}.
First, let's run a simple ANOVA comparing the sepal lengths of the three species.
\begin{SAScode}
PROC ANOVA DATA=sashelp.iris;
ODS SELECT OverallANOVA;
CLASS Species;
MODEL SepalLength = Species;
RUN;
\end{SAScode}
We can see that the three species have significantly different sepal lengths. Figure~\ref{F:box} shows the corresponding
boxplot.
\begin{figure}
\begin{SAScode}{sgfig=1}
PROC SGPLOT DATA=sashelp.iris;
VBOX SepalLength / CATEGORY=Species;
RUN;
\end{SAScode}
\caption{Boxplot of sepal lengths by species.}\label{F:box}
