This script allows you to take an existing list of values and represent it as a chart using Google's Chart API. The example here takes a list of visitors per hour and represents it as a bar chart. The simpleEncoding method provided by Google has been converted to LSL script.
<lsl> string simpleEncode(list values, float min, float max) {
string text = ""; float range = 244 / (min - max);//4 * 61 integer index = -llGetListLength(values);
do { integer type = llGetListEntryType(values, index); if(type == TYPE_FLOAT || type == TYPE_INTEGER) text = llGetSubString(llIntegerToBase64((integer)(range * (min - llList2Float(values, index)))), 4, 4) + text; else text = "_" + text;
++index; } while (index);
return text;
}
string cleanup(float value) {
string str = (string)value; if(value >= 10.0) return llGetSubString(str, 0, -8);
integer i = -1; while(llGetSubString(str, i, i) == "0") --i;
if(llGetSubString(str, i, i) == ".") --i;
return llGetSubString(str, 0, i);
}
string chartUrl(list values, list captions, integer yDivisions) {
integer min = llFloor(llListStatistics(LIST_STAT_MIN, values)); integer max = llCeil(llListStatistics(LIST_STAT_MAX, values));
string url = "http://chart.apis.google.com/chart" + "?chs=200x125" + "&chd=s:" + simpleEncode(values, min, max) + "&cht=lc" + "&chxt=x,y" + "&chxl=0:";
integer index = -llGetListLength(captions); do { url += "|" + llEscapeURL(llList2String(captions, index)); ++index; } while (index);
url += "|1:"; ++yDivisions; float range = max - min;
index = 1; do { url += "|" + cleanup(((index * range) / yDivisions) + min); ++index; } while (index <= yDivisions);
return url;
}
default {
state_entry() { // PUBLIC_CHANNEL has the integer value 0 llSay(PUBLIC_CHANNEL, chartUrl([8,8,3,2,1,5,3,2,2,3,1,4,6,3,4,7,5,6,5,5,4,5,5,6,4], ["4AM", "4PM", "4AM"], 0)); }
touch_start(integer total_number) { llSay(PUBLIC_CHANNEL, chartUrl([8,8,3,2,1,5,3,2,2,3,1,4,6,3,4,7,5,6,5,5,4,5,5,6,4], ["4AM", "4PM", "4AM"], 0)); }
} </lsl>
