Example: Heatmap with Labels

A 5 by 10 array of random data is created and a similarly sized array of strings is also created. These labels contain spreadsheet-like indices and the random data value expressed as a percentage.

The legend is enabled by setting its paint attribute to true. The tick marks in the legend are formatted using the percentage NumberFormat object. A title is also set in the legend.
