<h1> PlotKit EasyPlot</h1>
<p>EasyPlot is a wrapper around the various PlotKit classes to allow you to get a chart plotted as quick as possible with as little code as possible. Using EasyPlot, you will get a chart started with just a single line.
</p>
<h2> Constructor</h2>
<p> <code>PlotKit.EasyPlot(style, options, divElement, datasourceArray)</code>
</p>
<p>EasyPlot object will automatically choose the supported render method, currently Canvas or SVG in that order, and render the datasources given in <code>datasourceArray</code>.
</p>
<h3> Arguments:</h3>
<ul>
<li>
<code>style</code> may be <code>line</code>, <code>bar</code> or <code>pie</code>.
</li>
<li>
<code>options</code> is an associative dictionary that is the combined options of both <code>Layout</code> and <code>Renderer</code>.
</li>
<li>
<code>divElement</code> is the container that the chart should be rendered in. It is best that the <code>width</code> and <code>height</code> attribute is set in the <code>DIV</code> element.
</li>
<li>
<code>datasourceArray</code> is an array of data sources. The elements of the array can either be a two dimensional array given in <code>Plotkit.Layout.addDataset</code> or it can be a string that points to the relative URL of a comma separated data file.
</li>
</ul>
<h2> EasyPlot Example</h2>
<pre><code><div id="example" style="margin: 0 auto 0 auto;" width="400" height="400"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var data = [[0,0], [1,2], [2,3], [3, 7], [4, 8], [5, 6]];
var plotter = EasyPlot("line", {}, $("example"), [data, "sample.txt"]);
</script>
</code></pre><p>In this example, two datasets are passed, one defined as a 2D array and another which is a comma separated text file (CSV) at the location "sample.txt". A demonstration of this is found in the <a href="http://media.liquidx.net/js/plotkit-tests/quickstart-easy.html">QuickStartEasy</a> example.
