{p 4 4 4}{it}
The overall structure of a graphics command can be seen below, with various
parts coded in different colors or fonts.  The section "other_stuff" refers to
things like titles, legends, and captions and as we saw in the dialog boxes
and the commands generated from the dialog boxes they are almost completely
common across all graph types.  {sf}

{hline}
{p 0 2 0}. {cmd:{it:type_of_graph}} {input:{it:what_to_graph}} , 
{error:{it:how_it_looks}} {it:other_stuff}{p_end}
{hline}

{p 4 4 4}{it}
You can see how the sections of a graph command relate to actual commands
by following the coding in the commands below.
{sf}

{p 0 2 0}. {cmd:graph box} {input:trunk mpg} 

{p 0 2 0}. {cmd:histogram} {input:mpg}

{p 0 2 0}. {cmd:kdensity} {input:mpg}
		
{p 0 2 0}. {cmd:quantile} {input:trunk}

{p 0 2 0}. {cmd:graph twoway scatter} {input:mpg weight}{p_end}
	or
{p 0 2 0}. {cmd:twoway scatter} {input:mpg weight}{p_end}
	or
{p 0 2 0}. {cmd:scatter} {input:mpg weight}

{p 0 2 0}. {cmd:scatter} {input:mpg weight} , {error:mcolor(red)} 

{p 0 2 0}. {cmd:scatter} {input:mpg weight} , {error:mcolor(red)} 
title("My Red MPG")


o {cmd:twoway} allows an extension

. {cmd:twoway {it:plottype}} {input:{it:what_to_plot}} , {error:{it:how_it_looks}} ||
         {cmd:{it:plottype}} {input:{it:what_to_plot}} , {error:{it:how_it_looks}} ||
         ...
         {cmd:{it:plottype}} {input:{it:what_to_plot}} , {error:{it:how_it_looks}} {it:other_stuff}


o What kind of plottypes are there?

. {help graph_twoway:whelp twoway}
