Common errors
- Forgetting parentheses on newLineChart. Write Charts.newLineChart(), not Charts.newLineChart or newLineChart by itself.
- Skipping dots between chained calls. Each step needs a dot, like Charts.newLineChart().
- Adding spaces where they do not belong. Write Charts.newLineChart(), not Charts .newLineChart(), Charts.newLineChart (), or Charts . newLineChart().
- Wrong capitalization. Use Charts and newLineChart, not charts or newlinechart.
