Line Plots
Line plots are a useful way to compare sets of data or track changes over time. You can plot the data in a 2-D or 3-D view using either a linear or a logarithmic scale. Also, you can plot expressions or functions over specific intervals.

- Create 2-D Line Plot
Create a 2-D line plot and specify the line style, line color, and marker type.
- Create Line Plot with Markers

Create a chart with y-axes on both the left and right sides.
- Combine Line and Bar Charts Using Two y-Axes
This example shows how to combine a line chart and a bar chart using two different y-axes.
