How would the interior lines (Days, Xticpos, Values) need to be changed
if the data were instead a table with two columns: Date (format YYYY-MM-
DD) and Value? For even greater flexibility, assume that NOT every
date (including occasionally the first day) within a month has any data
(I'm thinking of stock market data as one example). I presume that
somehow you'd have to check for a change in the month and use that to
calculate the Xticpos? I'm VERY interested in seeing your solution!
Thanks in advance!
