What do you understand by legends and data series?
Answers
Explanation:
data series is a row or column of numbers that are entered in a worksheet and plotted in your chart, such as a list of quarterly business profits. Charts in Office are always associated with an Excel-based worksheet, even if you created your chart in another program, such as Word.
legend is an area of a chart that helps describe each of the parts that help make up a chart. See our chart definition for a visual example of alegend. 2. A legend is text that is used to describe what are typically unfamiliar characters or symbols.
Most charts use some kind of a legend to help readers understand the charted data. Whenever you create a chart in Excel, a legend for the chart is automatically generated at the same time. A chart can be missing a legend if it has been manually removed from the chart, but you can retrieve the missing legend.
This example chart shows a legend explaining the colors for the years 2013, 2014, 2015.
