Scatter Graphs

[dcinc74]

I am doing a graph for a statisrics class that involves sorting information on bears from a collection of data I have.

I am to plot the age and weight on a scatter graph, which was no problem, but the instructor wants us to designate which bears are male and which are female, he suggested using X'S AND O'S.

My question is, How do I make specific symbols appear on the scatter graph, it usually willl just show different colored plot points to represent the data.

Thanks

Make your chart with two series, one for male and the other for female. Use
an unfilled circle as the marker for one and the 'X' symbol as the marker
for the other. Both marker styles are among the standard list of options
when you double click a series.
