A simple scatter plot
To begin we will construct a a simple scatter plot:
-
Select (highlight) the data to be graphed.
-
Insert > Chart > Next.
-
Select the XY chart > Next.
-
Accept the symbols only selection > Next.
-
Add a title: Weather Conditions.
-
Check the box beside the x-axis label to accept the label Wind speed (km/hr).
-
Check the box beside the y axes label and type in a title. Percent Cloud Cover.
-
Uncheck the legend box (we do not need a legend for only one y-variable).
-
Click Create.
This gives us the graph in Figure 57. This basic graph could use some improvements.
