In the previous chapter, we reviewed the parts of a chart and began creating line charts. We manually created data arrays and passed them into our jqPlot objects. In this chapter, we'll learn how to import data from remote sources. We will discuss what area charts, stacked area charts, and scatter plots are. Then we will learn how to implement these newly learned charts. We will also learn about trend lines. The following list details the topics covered in this chapter:
