creating a chart showing mean and standard deviation in java

Question

I'm new to Jfreechart and swing and was trying to create a single graph showing both mean (as line chart) and standard deviation (as whiskers), but failed so far.

I'm trying to make the graph look similar to that:

I've tried using graph with multiple datasets but failed to make the renderer (xyrenderer) display the whiskers for the standard deviation.

Is there a better way to do this? perhaps some other free package?

You may be looking for the XYBoxAndWhiskerRenderer, which uses a BoxAndWhiskerXYDataset; the related BoxAndWhiskerRenderer is illustrated here.

Thanks for your response. However, we are looking for a way of getting just the whiskers without the boxplots. in the class metnioned here they are integrated, is there a way to seperate them? In addition, I'm looking for a way to add an additional layer to the whiskers, that is a continuous line, representing average. How can this be done? – giladke Jan 26 '13 at 11:25
You might want to look at `XYErrorRenderer` and also review the `Statistical Charts` in the JWS demo. – trashgod Jan 26 '13 at 11:40
