function Array() {

data = Array(85, 156, 179.5, 211, 123);

// The labels for the bar chart
labels = Array("Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Thu", "Fri");

// Create a XYChart object of size 300 x 280 pixels

// Set the plotarea at (45, 30) and of size 200 x 200 pixels
c.setPlotArea(45, 30, 200, 200);

// Add a title to the chart
c.addTitle("Weekly Server Load");

// Add a title to the y axis
c.yAxis().setTitle("MBytes");

// Add a title to the x axis
c.xAxis().setTitle("Work Week 25");

// Add a bar chart layer with green (0x00ff00) bars using the given data
c.addBarLayer(data, "0x00ff00").set3D();

// Set the labels on the x axis.

// Output the chart

// Include tool tip for the chart
