Visualizing results

Whenever a paragraph produces tabular output, Skeyenote shows a chart-type switcher above the result so you can move between a raw table and several chart types without changing your code.

Built-in chart types

Chart	Best for
Table	Browsing raw rows and columns
Line	Trends over a continuous axis, such as time
Bar	Comparing values across categories
Area	Trends where the magnitude below the line also matters
Pie	Proportions of a whole
Scatter	Relationships between two numeric fields

Configuring a chart

Each chart type has a settings panel where you drag the columns of your result into roles such as:

• Keys — the field(s) used to group rows along the axis (for example a date or a category)
• Groups — an optional field used to split the chart into series
• Values — the numeric field(s) to plot, each with an aggregation (sum, average, count, min, or max)

Changing these settings re-renders the chart immediately, without re-running the paragraph.

Combining charts with narrative

Because paragraphs run independently and can be reordered freely, a notebook can mix %md narrative paragraphs with code paragraphs and their charts to double as a lightweight, shareable report.
