I need to make a graph in Java that will output data about book sales on Amazon. Help, please!?
I have found the following base program from Ian Darwin:

I need to add more detail to get it to show lines and there are some mistakes because of my changes in the program. Can anybody help me?

For something this complex, you might want to visit the experts at Java Ranch, at link below. You have to register, but it's free. HTH

inheritance seem it up. however the assertion of the class could seem something like this: Public type answer boost try be conscious: I reported somthing like this, my java is a splash rusty
