Example: Scatter Chart
A scatter plot is constructed in this example. Three data sets are used and a legend is added to the chart. This class can be used either as an applet or as an application.

import java.awt.Color;
public class ScatterEx1 extends javax.swing.JApplet {
private JPanelChart panel;
public void init() {
Chart chart = new Chart(this);
panel = new JPanelChart(chart);
getContentPane().add(panel, java.awt.BorderLayout.CENTER);
setup(chart);
}
static private void setup(Chart chart) {
AxisXY axis = new AxisXY(chart);
int npoints = 20;
double dx = .5 * Math.PI/(npoints - 1);
double x[] = new double[npoints];
double y1[] = new double[npoints];
double y2[] = new double[npoints];
double y3[] = new double[npoints];
// Generate some data
for (int i = 0; i < npoints; i++){

y1[i] = Math.sin(x[i]);
y2[i] = Math.cos(x[i]);
y3[i] = Math.atan(x[i]);
}
Data d1 = new Data(axis, x, y1);

// Set Marker Types

// Add a Legend
