Chapter 1. Introduction

KChart is a tool for visualizing numerical data. It can be used as a standalone application with a simple Data Editor. But as a KOffice component it offers very flexible integration. KSpread uses the KChart component for charts and diagrams. KSpread can be seen as a very powerful data provider for KChart input.

But embedding is not limited to KSpread. A KChart chart can be embedded in many of the KOffice components like KWord, KPresenter or Kivio.

To start with we will look at the user interface of KChart and how it can be used as a standalone application. When we are familiar with KChart we will investigate the charting capabilities it offers together with KSpread.
