This example demonstrates using a pattern for filling the area in an area chart, together with a number of chart formatting features.

# The data for the area chart
$data = array(3.0, 2.8, 4.0, 5.5, 7.5, 6.8, 5.4, 6.0, 5.0, 6.2, 7.5, 6.5, 7.5, 8.1, 6.0, 5.5, 5.3,
3.5, 5.0, 6.6, 5.6, 4.8, 5.2, 6.5, 6.2);

$labels = array("0", "1", "2", "3", "4", "5", "6", "7", "8", "9", "10", "11", "12", "13", "14",
"15", "16", "17", "18", "19", "20", "21", "22", "23", "24");
# Create a XYChart object of size 300 x 180 pixels. Set the background to pale yellow (0xffffa0)

# Set the plotarea at (45, 35) and of size 240 x 120 pixels. Set the background to white (0xffffff).

# Set the line width to 2 pixels to highlight the line
