问题
Currently, I am able to read data from multiple CSV file and plot line graph using windows form application. However, now I need to plot a line graph based on a CSV file's section name (3rd column of csv file).
Modified/New CSV file: (Added the Section Name column)
Values,Sector,Name
5.55,1024,red
5.37,1536,red
5.73,2048,blue
5.62,2560,.blue
5.12,3072,.yellow
...
- Based on the Section Name column, my line graph need to be plotted accordingly in a Single line and different sections must be plotted with different colors, including the legends shown at the side of the graph must be shown based on the different section names.
- 1 csv file = 1 Series. But there are same section names in a csv file (csv file example shown above, e.g. red for the 1st 20lines). Same section names = same color. If I open 2 or more csv files = 2 Series. Each Series will have different colors due to different section names in the csv file.
I am quite new with programming, and would really appreciate someone could help me by editing from my code.
Thank you.

Updated code:
GraphDemo (Form):
List<Read> rrList = new List<Read>();
void openToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
OpenFileDialog ff = new OpenFileDialog();
Read rr;
ff.InitialDirectory = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Desktop); //"C:\\";
ff.Filter = "csv files (*.csv)|*.csv|All files (*.*)|*.*";
ff.Multiselect = true;
ff.FilterIndex = 1;
ff.RestoreDirectory = true;
if (ff.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
{
try
{
rrList.Clear();
foreach (String file in ff.FileNames) //if ((myStream = ff.OpenFile()) != null)
{
rr = new Read(file);
rrList.Add(rr);
}
//Populate the ComboBoxes
if (rrList.Count > 0)
{
string[] header = rrList[0].header; //header of first file
xBox.DataSource = header;
yBox.DataSource = header.Clone(); //without Clone the 2 comboboxes link together!
}
if (yBox.Items.Count > 1) yBox.SelectedIndex = 1; //select second item
}
catch (Exception err)
{
//Inform the user if we can't read the file

You can separate the data by the section column and use the section names as index into the Series collection instead of using i.
Best use the section name as the Series.Name. I suggest using a data class containing the two numbers and the string and collect them in a List<Dataclass>. Then create Series for the distinct sections. Then loop over them..
Here are a few code examples:
Define a class for your data:
public class Data3
{
public int N1 { get; set;}
public double N2 { get; set;}
public string S1 { get; set;}
public Data3(double n2, int n1, string s1)
{
N1 = n1; N2 = n2; S1 = s1;
}
}
Pick your own names! Optional but always recommended: Add a nice ToString() overload!
Declare a class level varible:
List<Data3> data = new List<Data3>();
During the read collect the data there:
data.Add(new Data3(Convert.ToDouble(pieces[1]), Convert.ToInt32(pieces[0]), pieces[2]));
To plot the chart first create the Series:
var sections= data.Select(x => x.S1).Distinct<string>();
foreach (string s in series)
chart.Series.Add(new Series(s) { ChartType = SeriesChartType.Line });
Then plot the data; the series can be indexed by their Names:
foreach (var d in data) chart.Series[d.S1].Points.AddXY(d.N1, d.N2);
I left out the nitty gritty of integrating the code into your application; if you run into issues, do show the new code by editing your question!
A few notes:
When in doubt always create a class to hold your data
When in doubt always choose classes over structures
When in doubt always choose
List<T>over arraysAlways try to break your code down to small chunks with helpful names.
Example: To read all the data in a csv file create a function to do so:
public void AppendCsvToDataList(string file, List<Data3> list)
{
if (File.Exists(file))
{
var lines = File.ReadAllLines(file);
for (int l = 1; l < lines.Length; l++)
{
var pieces = lines[l].Split(',');
list.Add(new Data3(Convert.ToInt32(pieces[1]),
Convert.ToDouble(pieces[0]), pieces[2]));
}
}
}
