ASP.NET Error Bar Chart

The Error Bar chart type consists of lines with markers that are used to display statistical information about the data displayed in a graph. A series of the Error Bar chart type has three Y values. While these values can be manually assigned to each point, in most cases, the values are calculated from the data present in another series. The order of the Y values is important because each position in the array of values represents a value on the error bar.

Adding Error Bar series to another series on same chart

Lets say we have a chart named Chart1 and series named Series1. 

We can add the Error Bar series to Series1 using the following snippet...

.

     Series errorBarSeries = new Series("ErrorBar");  

            errorBarSeries.ChartType = SeriesChartType.ErrorBar;  

            errorBarSeries.MarkerBorderColor = Color.FromArgb(64, 64, 64);  

            errorBarSeries.MarkerSize = 6;  

            errorBarSeries.YValuesPerPoint = 3;  

            errorBarSeries.BorderColor = Color.FromArgb(180, 26, 59, 105);  

            errorBarSeries.Color = Color.FromArgb(252, 180, 65);  

            errorBarSeries.ShadowOffset = 1;  

            errorBarSeries.MarkerStyle = MarkerStyle.None;  

            errorBarSeries["PointWidth"] = "0.1";  

            double error = 100;  

            foreach (DataPoint point in Series1.Points)  

            {  

                double centerY = point.YValues[0];  

                double lowerErrorY = centerY - error;  

                double upperErrorY = centerY + error;  

                errorBarSeries.Points.AddXY(point.XValue, centerY, lowerErrorY, upperErrorY);  

            }  

            Chart1.Series.Add(errorBarSeries); 

.

Calculating Error Values from Another Series

This can be done using the following code snippet.

  // Populate series with data

    double[]    yValues = {32.4, 56.9, 89.7, 98.5, 59.3, 33.8, 78.8, 44.6, 76.4, 68.9};

    Chart1.Series["DataSeries"].Points.DataBindY(yValues);

    // Set error bar chart type

    chart1.Series["ErrorBar"].ChartType = SeriesChartType.ErrorBar;

    // Link error bar series with data series

    Chart1.Series["ErrorBar"]["ErrorBarSeries"] = "DataSeries";

    // Set error calculation type

    Chart1.Series["ErrorBar"]["ErrorBarType"] = "StandardError";

    // Set error bar upper & lower error style

    Chart1.Series["ErrorBar"]["ErrorBarStyle"] = "UpperError";

    // Set error bar center marker style

    Chart1.Series["ErrorBar"]["ErrorBarCenterMarkerStyle"] = "Circle";
