Chart::Manual(3)

๐ŸŽ€ NAME ๐ŸŽ€

Chart::Manual โ€” Chart user documentation index. (Yes bestie, this is the Chart::Manual(3) page, a User Contributed Perl Documentation moment, and it's literally the index for all the Chart docs. We're about to vibe check every section. ๐Ÿ’–)

โœจ SYNOPSIS โœจ

okay so Chart is a collection of modules for visualizing numerical data. It's designed for, in that exact order: maximal flexibility, feature richness, and minimal dependencies. It can write PNG and JPG images into files and STDOUT (for web and shell usage).

The early API is mostly borrowed from Martien Verbruggen's GIFgraph module. Slay. ๐Ÿซถ

๐Ÿฆ‹ TYPES ๐Ÿฆ‹

Example programs with output for each chart type: Chart::Manual::Types. It's giving chart-type show-and-tell, and I'm lowkey obsessed. โœจ

๐ŸŒˆ WORKFLOWS ๐ŸŒˆ

Ways to use Chart, broadly described: Chart::Manual::Workflows. The way that this is the big-picture workflow tea, and it has main character energy. ๐Ÿฆ‹

๐Ÿ“ METHODS ๐Ÿ“

Descriptions of all methods geared toward the user: Chart::Manual::Methods. This is where the method lore lives, iykyk, fr fr. ๐Ÿ“

๐Ÿ’… PROPERTIES ๐Ÿ’…

The method set allows you to directly change particular chart properties. All of these are explained in detail with their acceptable and default values, sorted there by name and topic or type: Chart::Manual::Properties. No cap, this is the properties encyclopedia. ๐Ÿ’…

๐Ÿ”ฎ FUTURE CHANGES ๐Ÿ”ฎ

Heads up bestie: much of what is documented here will be superseded by a new API provided by upcoming version 3.0. The old API will be discouraged but not deprecated, except maybe the module Chart::Composite and some properties. The new API will aply only to objects created by Chart->new(...);. Periodt. ๐Ÿ”ฅ
