Accuracy & Method

  • Correct pairing: the first X value is paired with the first Y value, and unequal list lengths are rejected.
  • True numeric scales: point positions are proportional to their numeric values, including negatives, decimals, and scientific notation.
  • Transparent statistics: the optional trendline is ordinary least squares with an intercept; undefined cases are reported as N/A.
  • Consistent output: raster and SVG exports use the same validated points, bounds, labels, colors, and trendline model.
