who want to add professional graphics and charts to their applications. My hope is to write the
ultimate C# chart and graphics programming guide that would be useful to C# application
programmers of all skill levels.

plays a very important role in every Windows application. Charts and graphics can make data
easier to understand, can make a report more interesting to read, and can have wide applications in
