Hello Fellas, We all know andorid till date don’t provide any graph view. That’s is why we are here.
There are many library available by various contributor all over the world. Some reputated one’s are:
ii. http://www.android-graphview.org/
iii. aChartEngine
This blog is based on MPAndroidChart library. Here are the steps to create a simple graph (a curved or line graph).

repositories { maven { url "https://jitpack.io" } } dependencies { //format for including lib jar files for all flavors compile fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.jar']) compile 'com.github.PhilJay:MPAndroidChart:v2.2.3' } |

<com.github.mikephil.charting.charts.LineChart android:id="@+id/chart1" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" /> |
note: we are using LineChart for the same of simplicity.
MPAndroidChart provide getter setter for the basic view as well changes that we want to reflect in graph view.
Here is our sample configuration.

Some cooked code for createData(count)

Here is our sample creation :
That’s all folks. Stay Updated.
