Generate statistical graphs

dunhill · 01-17-2023, 09:36 PM

The other day I was asked, if I could get a statistical graph from my library.
The first thing that occurred to me was to create a catalog in cvs and in a spreadsheet to make the graphics.
Does anyone do this in another way?

Job Spy has a "visualize metadata" option somewhere.

I vaguely recall this Eureka moment I had when I found some feature in Calibre or some plugin that allowed me to generate a bar graph from "Date" column, and it baffled me to see that every year around June was a time when there was a spike in the graph. I had never noticed I added so much more books to the library around that time of year.

Now I've just tried to see how to bring up that "bar graph", but couldn't find it.

I use CSV and Spreadsheet as well. My Excel has one tab to paste the data into it. Doing this updates the other three tabs with different views of stats, lists, graphs.

Thanks for the tip, Js+ still has some hidden features for me but it does what you said.
