$values_2[1] = 200;
$values_2[2] = 300;

$chart->SetSeriesValuesFromArray(0, $values_1);

// count1 is now equal to 2
$count1= $chart->GetValuesCount();

$chart->SetSeriesValuesFromArray(1, $values_2);

// count2 is now equal to 3
$count2= $chart->GetValuesCount();

$categories= array();

$categories[0]= "Cat 1";
$categories[1]= "Cat 2";
$categories[2]= "Cat 3";
$categories[3]= "Cat 4";

$chart->SetCategoriesFromArray($categories);
