Help with graphing problem
I'm working on a project that reads data from a file for the high, low and month close of a stock by month. Once the data is read I have to graph the the high and low marks for each month. The high and low mark for each month needs to be connected by a vertical line. I was able to code it so that the user can choose the file to pull the data from and I also have it so the data is read from the file. I also have a lot of the graph completed. The issue I'm having is graphing the data and also labeling the data ranges on the x and y axis based on the info pulled from the file. Below is the code I already have and any help would be greatly appreciated. I also have included a sample of what the data file looks like and also what the graph needs to look like.
Sample file:
MAY 7 18 20
JUN 10 19 26
JUL 12 14 22
AUG 14 24 38
SEP 34 45 52
OCT 42 51 56

Labels work okay. Note resizing behavior of new labels and data.
Changes:
In StockGraph pass the reference to StockMonth into Graph:
Java Code:Graph g = new Graph(sm);
Java Code:public Vector<String> getMonth(){
the Graph class, left rough:
Java Code:import java.awt.*; import java.awt.font.*; import java.awt.geom.*; import java.util.*; import javax.swing.*; public class Graph extends JPanel { final int PAD = 40; // sets size of pad between the graph and edge of frame final int SPAD = 2; final int CLOSE = 15; StockMonth stockMonth; int[] maxValues; int[] closeVals; int[] minValues; Graph(StockMonth sm) { stockMonth = sm; // The numeric information could be better // stored as Integer in the vectors of StockMonth. // Make up arrays to store the data locally. initArrays(); } // Method creates all aspects of the graph and plots data protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) { super.paintComponent(g); Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D)g; g2.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING, RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON); int w = getWidth(); int h = getHeight(); // draws axes g2.draw(new Line2D.Double(PAD, PAD, PAD, h-PAD)); g2.draw(new Line2D.Double(PAD, h-PAD, w-PAD, h-PAD)); // gridlines of graph int steps = 11; float gridY = //48; (float)(h - 2*PAD)/steps; //System.out.printf("gridY = %.1f%n", gridY); for(int lineCounter = 0; lineCounter < steps; lineCounter++){ float y = lineCounter*gridY; g2.draw(new Line2D.Double(//PAD, PAD + y, h-PAD, PAD + y)); PAD, PAD + y, w-PAD, PAD + y)); // gridY = gridY + 48; } // adds main title to graph g2.drawString("Monthly High-Low Stock Graph", 290, 20); // adds title of x-axis to graph g2.drawString("Month", 300, 660); // adds title of y-axis to graph String[] yTitle = {"S", "t", "o", "c", "k", " ", "P", "r", "i", "c", "e", "s"}; int xAxisTitle = 5; int yAxisTitle = 175; for(int titleCounter = 0; titleCounter < yTitle.length; titleCounter++){ g2.drawString(yTitle[titleCounter], xAxisTitle, yAxisTitle); yAxisTitle = yAxisTitle + 25; } Font font = g2.getFont().deriveFont(16f); g2.setFont(font); FontRenderContext frc = g2.getFontRenderContext(); LineMetrics lm = font.getLineMetrics("0", frc); float height = lm.getAscent() + lm.getDescent(); // adds data ranges to y-axis // You could use this to determine the max value of ordinate. int max = getMaxValue(); // String[] yLabel = {}; // int xAxis = 20 - SPAD; // int yAxis = 100; int stepVal = 6; for(int yCounter = 0; yCounter < steps; yCounter++) { String s = String.valueOf(stepVal*(steps - yCounter)); float width = (float)font.getStringBounds(s, frc).getWidth(); float x = PAD - SPAD - width; float y = PAD + yCounter*gridY + height/2 - lm.getDescent(); g2.drawString(s, x, y); // yAxis = yAxis + 31; } // adds frequency scale to x-axis Vector<String> v = stockMonth.getMonth(); int size = v.size(); String[] months = (String[])v.toArray(new String[size]); // int xCoordinate = 123; // int yCoordinate = 405; float xInc = (float)(w - 2*PAD)/size; float y = h - PAD + SPAD + lm.getAscent(); for(int j = 0; j < months.length; j++) { String s = months[j]; float width = (float)font.getStringBounds(s, frc).getWidth(); float x = PAD + j*xInc + xInc/2 - width/2; g2.drawString(months[j], x, y); // xCoordinate = xCoordinate + 48; } // Plot data. // Each step of stepVal in model units = gridY in view units float scale = (float)(h - 2*PAD)/(steps); for(int j = 0; j < size; j++) { float x = PAD + j*xInc + xInc/2; float yMax = h - PAD - gridY*((float)maxValues[j]/stepVal); float yClose = h - PAD - gridY*((float)closeVals[j]/stepVal); float yMin = h - PAD - gridY*((float)minValues[j]/stepVal); g2.draw(new Line2D.Float(x, yMax, x, yMin)); g2.draw(new Line2D.Float(x, yClose, x+CLOSE, yClose)); } } private int getMaxValue() { int max = 0; for(int j = 0; j < maxValues.length; j++) { if(maxValues[j] > max) max = maxValues[j]; } return max; } private void initArrays() { Vector<String> highs = stockMonth.getHighPrice(); Vector<String> closes = stockMonth.getMonthClose(); Vector<String> lows = stockMonth.getLowPrice(); System.out.println("highs = " + highs); System.out.println("closes = " + closes); System.out.println("lows = " + lows); maxValues = new int[highs.size()]; minValues = new int[highs.size()]; closeVals = new int[highs.size()]; for(int j = 0; j < maxValues.length; j++) { maxValues[j] = Integer.parseInt((String)highs.get(j)); closeVals[j] = Integer.parseInt((String)closes.get(j)); minValues[j] = Integer.parseInt((String)lows.get(j)); } } }
