I have data from a csv formatted as such:
StartTime EndTime Duration Type
--------- ------- -------- ----
43:04.7 43:06.9 2200 long
43:06.9 43:08.7 1825 middle
43:08.7 43:09.6 905 short
43:09.6 43:11.9 2231 long
43:11.9 43:13.7 1794 middle
43:13.7 43:14.5 796 short
There are several thousand more rows.
I want a line graph with StartTime as the X-axis, duration as the Y-axis, and 3 separate lines: one each for long, middle, and short.
Can Excel do this with this dataset or do I have to reformat it? What is the best way of making this graph?
Best Answer
You can add three formulas next to your data, and plot these columns
Assuming data is in columns
A:D
, starting in row 3add labels to cells
E1
,F1
,G1
= long, middle, shortadd formulas to cells
copy down for as may rows as you have, and plot columns E, F, G
