Description Usage Arguments Value Examples

Generates a line plot with markers on chosen points. Allows only one point per time interval. To create a plot with many points within one time interval try 'line_chart_dense'.

line_chart(
  data,
  x,
  series,
  series_labels,
  ser_names,
  point_cords,
  interval = "months"
)

`data`	data frame containing data to be plotted
`x`	vector containing time intervals of the values
`series`	vector containing names of columns in data with values to plot
`series_labels`	vector containing names of series to be shown on the plot
`ser_names`	vector containing column names of a value to be marked
`point_cords`	vector of the same length as ser_names containing numerical values of indexes in data of values to be marked
`interval`	intervals on x axis. The width of the bars depends on this parameter

Delta = c(22, 25, 67, 73, 102, 98)
)

#defining rest of arguments
names <- c("Gamma", "Gamma", "Gamma","Gamma","Delta", "Delta")
cords <- c(1, 4,5,2, 5,4)
