So far in this chapter, all the charts that we've created have used a utility library, NVD3, to do a lot of heavy lifting for us. However, we can also create a lot of these charts directly with D3. We'll see how to do this to use graphs with time series data.
We'll use the same dependencies and plugins in our project.clj file as we did in the Creating scatter plots with NVD3 recipe. Also, we'll use the framework we created in the recipes in this chapter upto the Creating scatter plots with NVD3 recipe.
For data, we'll use IBM's stock prices from the end of November 2001 to November 2012. You can download this dataset from http://www.ericrochester.com/clj-data-analysis/data/ibm.csv. Save the file into resources/data/ibm.csv.
