Error Creating a Chart in Google Sheets

[David Meyers]

Hello,

I keep getting an error message when trying to add rows to a column chart in Google Sheets. I've tried different syntax (with brackets, without, data in an array, individual entries, etc) and nothing seems to work. I've attached a screen shot of what I think is the proper syntax based on the documentation (again, I've tried formatting it differently and get the same error). Any ideas as to what I might be missing? Thanks in advance!

Looks like you should be able to swap out the literal definition in your addColumn calls to a simple string:

data.addColumn('number', '5.8');

And if that doesn't solve it, the dash behind the first value 5.8- may be causing the error.

Taking out the dash solved it, thank you!
