 The box-and-whiskers plot has the following interpretation: 
-- left vertical bar indicates the minimum,
+- left vertical bar indicates the *minimum*,
 - left whisker line starts at `max(Q1 - 1.5IQR, minimum)` and ends at lower quartile (Q1),
 - diamond indicates mean,
 - vertical bar inside of the box indicates median,
 - right whisker line starts at upper quartile (Q3) and ends at `min(Q3 + 1.5IQR, maximum)`,
-- right vertical bar indicates the maximum.
+- right vertical bar indicates the *maximum*.
 
 With above setup it may happen that 
 there is a gap between the minimum marker and the beginning of the left whisker

+The iffunc() macro function is a "lazy typer" wrapping up conditional execution.

+  %do;

+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The `%iffunc()` macro ca be nested in open code 
+in contrary to standard `%IF-%THEN-%ELSE`.
+
+The `minoperator` option is used to handle `IN` operator,
+but the `IN` operator in the condition *has* to be surrounded 
+by spaces, e.g. `&x. in (1 2 3)`. 
+Condition of the form `&x. in(1 2 3)` (no space after `in`) will
+result with an error.

+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~sas
+%iffunc(
+   cond
+  ,true
+  ,false
+ <,v=>
+)
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+**Arguments description**:
+
+1. `cond`  - *Required*, is a condition to be evaluated.
+             It **has** to be provided in brackets,
+             e.g., `(1=&x.)` or `(%scan(&x.,1)=A)`.
+
+2. `true`  - *Required*, value returned when condition is true.
+
+3. `false` - *Required*, value returned when condition is false.
+
+4 `v=`     - *Optional*, v for verbose. If set to `1` extra notes
+              are printed.

+ 
+### EXAMPLES AND USECASES: ####################################################
+
+**EXAMPLE 1.** Simple test:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~sas
+  %let x = 1;
+  %let test = %iffunc((&x.=1),True,False);
+  %put &=test.;
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+
+**EXAMPLE 2.** Verbose with `v=` in the `%put` statement:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~sas
+  %put %iffunc((TRUE=true),TRUE,FALSE,v=1);
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+
+**EXAMPLE 3.** Condition can be with decimals or text:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~sas
+  %put True: %iffunc((9.9<10),TRUE,FALSE);
+
+  %put False: %iffunc((A>B),TRUE,FALSE);
+
+  %put True: %iffunc((1=1.0),TRUE,FALSE);

+
+  %put True: %iffunc((.1+.1+.1+.1+.1+.1+.1+.1+.1+.1 = 1),TRUE,FALSE);
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+
+**EXAMPLE 4.** Macro-Functions works too:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~sas
+  %let x = A B C;
+  %put %iffunc((%scan(&x.,1)=A),Starts with "A"., Does not start with "A".);
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+

+  %let x=0;
+  %let y=0;

+  %put
+    %iffunc((&x.)
+      ,It is X.

+        ,It is Z.
+      ,v=1)
+    ,v=1)
+  ;
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+
+**EXAMPLE 6.** Special characters have to be masked:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~sas
+  %put %iffunc(1,%str(,),%str(;));
+  %put %iffunc(0,%str(,),%str(;));
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+
+**EXAMPLE 7.** If you want to call macros there is a price. 
+  The `%nrstr()` and `%unquote()` are required:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~sas
+  %macro doX(a,b);
+    %put >>> &a. &b;
+    data do_X;
+      set sashelp.class;

+      ,%nrstr(%doZ(5,6))
+    ,v=1)
+  ,v=1)
+  )
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+
+**EXAMPLE 8.** Traffic lights with `NOTE:` and `ERROR:`,
+  Remember to handle the `IN` operator with an extra care.
+  Spaces are required around the `IN` operator.
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~sas
+  %let x = A;
+  %put %iffunc((&x. IN (A B C)),NOTE:,ERROR:) x=%superq(x);
+
+  %let x = 7;
+  %put %iffunc((&x. IN (1 3 5)),NOTE:,ERROR:) x=%superq(x);
+
+  %let x = 1.1;
+  %put %iffunc((&x. IN (1.1 2.1 3.1)),NOTE:,ERROR:) x=%superq(x);
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+
+**EXAMPLE 9.** Mixing `IN` operator with non-integer evaluation
+  requires `%sysevalf()` function:
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~sas
+  %let x = Y;
+  %let y = 9.9;
+
+  %put THIS will be False: %iffunc((&x. in (y Y) AND &y.<10),TRUE,FALSE);
