Hi Monks, I'm trying to use Chart::plot to make a simple scatter graph.
This works for test data that i've made up but doesn't work for my actual data. I've tested that both @x and @y contain the same number of elements and they both contain numbers. Can anyone see why this isn't working?
Cheers! 

# @filtered_option1 and 2 look like this:  0.4025 -0.606897 -0.158242 
+0.2025 -0.24058 0.131667 -0.085 -1.1234 -0.093793 -0.458974 0.360345 
+-0.420438 0.060759 -0.183562 -0.726804 0.867273 -0.41 -0.391667 -0.02
+4828 -0.410113 0.263917 -0.746429 -0.068269 -0.455814

###  IT WORKS FOR THESE BELOW!!
