How to draw a chart with Min/Max/Median/Avg.

[Jan Frode Engh]

Hi.

I'm working ( as a hobby ) on an application which will produce several statistics on lottery numbers.

One chart will draw min/max/median/avg weeks between each time a number is drawn.

I have tried to show this in the (rather crude) drawing I have supplied.

On the vertical axis is the number ( 1 to 34 really ).

On the horizontal axis is the number of weeks ( between 3.5 and 6 in reality ;--) )

The blue circles marks the minimum values.

The purple circles marks the maximum values.

The red triangles marks the median values.

The green squared marks the average values.

Could You please help me with choosing which chart to use in order to display this type of data.

And also provide me with some starter code.

Could this task be simpler to solve if I choose a different desktop solution other than wpf.

I do not have to use wpf, it's only a hobby project.

Best regards
