chart, it is defined by a single function and two BY variables or by
multiple functions and a single BY variable (see Figure 9 to Figure 11).
RANGE Range bar chart. A range bar chart displays a series of floating bars.
The height of each bar represents the range of the category and its
position in the chart indicates the minimum and maximum values. A
range bar chart can be defined by a single function and two BY variables
or by multiple functions and a single BY variable. If a variable
list is used as the argument for a function, the list must be of an even
number. If a second BY variable is used to define the range, the variable
must be dichotomous (see Figure 12 to Figure 14).

or: sum_function(var) BY var
y-axis title: fn name [+fn var label]

One bar is produced for each variable, representing the summary function of that variable
across all cases.
