hi
I want to find a way of displaying categorical information as a line graph.
Although this is not usually the best way to go about things, it is
expedient in a situation I have in mind.
I have the raw data and want to work with the data file.
So, one variable (say, region) divided into x categories. I want to show
the percentage of other variables (say, urban population and literacy) in
each of the regions - with regions along the X axis and the different
percentages of urban population/literacy (2 separate lines one for
urban population and one for lieracy) indicated by points within
the graph. I also want to connect all the different regional
percentages of urban population by a line (and do the same for
literacy).
any help with this greatly appreciated
regards
ann
