Thanks to all contributors who share their knowledge here and have helped 
me figure out answers to some technical questions I've had in the past.

I want to share a couple of recent experiments with the chart API, where I 
recreated some of my favorite data visualizations, namely an animated 
temperature chart and a Tufte temperature chart. 

I've written about the thought process and code on my website: 
http://www.benlcollins.com/javascript/animated-temp-chart/
http://www.benlcollins.com/javascript/tufte-chart-google/

This first chart is an animated data visualization of Washington D.C.’s 
temperatures:

Here's the chart <http://benlcollins.com/dataviz/animated_temp_chart.html> 
and the code on GitHub 
<https://github.com/benlcollins/apps_script/blob/master/dataviz/google_animated_temperature_chart.html>
.


This second chart is a recreation of Tufte's famous temperature chart, and 
looks at daily average temperature over a period of time for Washington DC, 
capturing the historic min/max range, the normal range, the 2014 
temperature line and picks out the highs and lows.

Here's the chart 
<http://www.benlcollins.com/dataviz/google_temp_chart_v2.html> and the code 
on GitHub 
<https://github.com/benlcollins/apps_script/blob/master/dataviz/google_temp_chart_v2.html>
.

Both charts make use of multiple series, with different parameters set, to 
control the different types or colors of lines.
