Hi folks,

Sorry if my question has already been asked. I am new to Google
Visualization (in fact, I just heard about it today, but have been
already addicted to it :)) so please be gentle.

Anyway, my task is to draw multiple different datasets (datasets'
structures are the same, just values are different). After a bit of
reading, I came up with:

-------------------
        google.load('visualization', '1', {packages: ['table',
'corechart']});
        google.setOnLoadCallback(drawAll);
        google.setOnLoadCallback(initialize);

        function drawAll() {
                var data = new google.visualization.DataTable();
                data.addColumn('string','Name');
                data.addColumn('number','Salary');
                
data.addRows([['John',10000],['Mary',25000],['Steve',8000],['Ellen',
20000],['Mike',12000]]);
                drawSort(data, '1');
                var data2 = new google.visualization.DataTable();
                data2.addColumn('string','Name');
                data2.addColumn('number','Salary');
                data2.addRows([['Shoes', 10700],['Sports', 15400],['Toys', 
12500],
['Electronics', 2100],['Food', 22600],['Art', 1100]]);
        drawSort(data2,'2');
        }

        function drawSort(data, suffix) {
                var formatter = new google.visualization.NumberFormat({prefix:
'$'});
                formatter.format(data, 1); // Apply formatter to second column

                var view = new google.visualization.DataView(data);
                view.setColumns([0, 1]);

                var table = new
google.visualization.Table(document.getElementById('table_div'+suffix));
                table.draw(view, {allowHtml: true, showRowNumber: false, title: 
'',
width: 450});

                var colChart = new
google.visualization.ColumnChart(document.getElementById('column_div'+suffix));
                colChart.draw(view, {width: 450, height: 300});

                var pieChart = new
google.visualization.PieChart(document.getElementById('pie_div'+suffix));
                //pieChart.draw(data, {is3D: true, width: 450, height: 300, 
title:
''});
                pieChart.draw(view, {width: 450, height: 300});

                google.visualization.events.addListener(table, 'sort',
                        function(event) {
                                data.sort([{column: event.column, desc: 
!event.ascending}]);
                                colChart.draw(view, {width: 450, height: 300});
                                pieChart.draw(view, {width: 450, height: 300});
                        }
                );
        }
---------------------------

This works fine with two datasets above, but as you can see in fuction
drawAll, there are a boring repeat of declaring data, data2, data3
etc... Is there a way of shortening that, say with another function?

Thank you in advance,

D.
