SGPLOT OVERVIEW  The SGPLOT procedure creates one or more plots and overlays them on a single set of axes.  SGPLOT procedure can be used to create statistical graphics such as histograms and regression plots, in addition to simple graphics such as scatter plots and line plots.  Statements and options enable us to control the appearance of graph and add additional features such as legends and reference lines
