The WinForms Chart Control provides a wide variety of different 2D view types which give you the ability to display data as any of the basic chart types, or even as a combination of different series views. In addition, if the data provided for a particular chart type is still valid for another chart type, you can change the current series view with a single click or line of code (see How to: Change the View of a Series). This makes the Chart Control more flexible and effective in representing data.
