5.1.7. Sequence Diagram
A vertical character plot of the selected column is drawn against the number of rows. The minimum and maximum observations are displayed on the horizontal axis. Row numbers and values are displayed on the left of the plot.
Rows containing missing data are drawn blank and a missing data marker is printed in place of their value. The resolution of this graph depends on the Width parameter defined in Tools → Options → Output → Text Margins.
