Getting Started with Flash Charts using RPG

http://www.profondlogic.tv.

Today, we will be talking to one of our RPG developers, Alan Smith, who we will demonstrate an easy-to-use option for charting your IBM i data.

When it comes to viewing and analyzing data, a text-based interface may not be enough. Visualization can add a whole new dimension of understanding. While RPG wasnt originally created for graphical representation of data, this task is surprisingly simple today with a browser-based interface powered by RPG. With the right approach and a little help from Flash, it takes very little effort to create stunning 2D or 3D charts and graphs directly from RPG code.
