twoway scatter propval100 region
If a variable has meaningful value
labels, we can display the value labels
in place of the values. For example, we
can look at the
propval100
broken
down by census region, but we do not
know which regions correspond to the
values1to4.

If we include the

option, the value labels
are displayed instead, making the graph
much easier to understand.
