DYNAMIC CHARTS
Dynamic charting takes tables of raw numbers and draws charts on the web page, automatically.
The graphics are actually drawn as the page is created. That means you can alter a number in the
table and the chart will change instantly.
Below you will see two tables of temperature data for Mankato, MN.
1) Average monthly temperatures for Mankato, MN for the years of 2001, 2002, 2003.
2) High temperature (temps 70 degrees and above), medium temperature (between 50 - 69 degrees), and low temperature (50 degrees and below).
The first set of data is displayed using a bar chart, a line chart, an area chart, and a column chart. The second table's data is displayed using a pie chart for each year representing the percentage of a year that would fall into what we are categorizing high, medium and low temperature months.
