Plot Type: squaredarea (Squared Area Plot)">squaredarea</a>).It is similar to the <a class="link" href="conc-plottypes.html#plottype-area" title="3.4.1. Plot Type: area (Area Plot)">area</a>)plot, but the data lines are stepped as in the<a class="link" href="conc-plottypes.html#plottype-squared" title="3.4.12. Plot Type: squared (Squared Plot)">squared</a>) plot.</p><p>Compare this image to the next example,<a class="xref" href="ex-stackedsquaredarea1.html" title="5.53. Example - Stacked Squared Area Plot">Section 5.53, “Example - Stacked Squared Area Plot”</a>,which uses the same data but plots a stacked (or cumulative) plot.This unstacked plot shows the actual values for each country (which can beread on the Y axis scale) but only if they are visible. For instance, in2007 the amount for Venezuela (dark blue) is a little more than the amountfor Nigeria (red). But in 2002-2003, the amounts for Canada (light blue)are less than the next two countries, which results in the Canada valuesbeing covered by the others and not visible.</p><p>In the script below, a copy of the last data row is appended to the data array.This is usually necessary with the squaredarea plot if you want thelast data set to be visible. For an explanation, see description of the<a class="link" href="conc-plottypes.html#plottype-squaredarea" title="3.4.13. Plot Type: squaredarea (Squared Area Plot)">squaredarea</a> plot type.</p><p>Note: Squared Area plots were added in PHPlot-6.2.0.</p><div class="example"><a id="example-squaredarea1"></a><p class="title"><strong>Example 5.52.
