function createGraph(canvasID, labels, unit, labelDivID, intervalSize,
    maxVal, vlines=false, timestamps=false, scalesteps=5, vlinesFreq = 1)

Arguments :

canvasID : The id of <canvas> tag for the graph.
labels : List/array of string for label names.
unit : The unit for the values.
labelDivID: ID of the <div> tag to place graph labels/legend.
intervalSize: Amount of pixels to shift the graph on update.
maxVal: Approximate maximum value. Picograph can autoscale, this argument is only for initial value.
minVal: Approximate minimum value. Picograph can autoscale, this argument is only for initial value.
vlines: Show vertical lines.
timestamps: Show timestamps.
scalesteps: Number of scale lines to draw on the graph.
vlinesFreq: Vertical lines and timestamps will be drawn every vlinesFreq*intervalSize. Increase this if the vertical lines are too crowded.

Returns : Graph object.

Graph.update(values)

Arguments :

values : Array of values to add to the graph.

Note

Always use CSS or style to set height and width of the canvas. Do not use height and width attributes of the canvas tag, it may cause scaling issues.

Correct Way:

<canvas id="graphDemo" style="width: 900px; height:200px">

Or you can use CSS flex box, the canvas should be surrounded by

<div style="flex-basis: 0; flex-grow: 1;">

Incorrect Way:

<canvas id="graphDemo" width=900 height=200">

When the browsers use Javascript, they need any memory location to store objects, functions, and all other things. Let’s deep in dive that how things going to work in GC.
