\texttt{barchart} is a \LaTeX\space package for creating simple and easy to use bar-chart. The package is heavily inspired by \texttt{bchart} by Tobias Kuhn. \texttt{barchart} provides an easy way to create vertical barcharts using Tikz. \texttt{barchart} is a \LaTeX\space package for creating simple and easy to use bar-chart.

\texttt{height} is used to set the height of the whole chart. Omitting a height on charts with large \texttt{max} values will make the chart enormous. \texttt{height} is used to set the height of the whole chart.

\section{Labels} \section{Labels}
The package also include various ways of labeling the charts. Both the chart and its individual bars can be labeled.
The chart can be labeled using:
\begin{center}
\begin{minipage}[l][][c]{0.45\linewidth}
\begin{quote}\small
\begin{verbatim}
\begin{barchart}[label= A nice chart]
\barc{5}
\barc{7}
\barc{3}
\barc{2}
\end{barchart}
\end{verbatim}
\end{quote}
\end{minipage}
\quad
\begin{minipage}[r][][c]{0.45\linewidth}
\begin{barchart}[label= A nice chart]
\barc{5}
\barc{7}
\barc{3}
\barc{2}
\end{barchart}
\end{minipage}
\end{center}
Each bar can also have their own label. These labels are positioned below the x-axis.
\begin{center}
\begin{minipage}[l][][c]{0.45\linewidth}
\begin{quote}\small
\begin{verbatim}
\begin{barchart}[label=A nice chart]
\barc[label=Some]{5}
\barc[label=Nice]{7}
\barc[label=Labels]{3}
\end{barchart}
\end{verbatim}
\end{quote}
\end{minipage}
\quad
\begin{minipage}[r][][c]{0.45\linewidth}
\begin{barchart}[label=A nice chart]
\barc[label=Some]{5}
\barc[label=Nice]{7}
\barc[label=Labels]{3}
\end{barchart}
\end{minipage}
\end{center}
These labels can also be rotated, so they are easier to read using \texttt{rotation=true}.
\begin{center}
\begin{minipage}[l][][c]{0.45\linewidth}
\begin{quote}\small
\begin{verbatim}
\begin{barchart}
\barc[label=Some, rotation=true]{5}
\barc[label=Nice, rotation=true]{7}
\barc[label=Labels, rotation=true]{3}
\end{barchart}
\end{verbatim}
\end{quote}
\end{minipage}
\quad
\begin{minipage}[r][][c]{0.45\linewidth}
\begin{barchart}
\barc[label=Som, rotation=truee]{5}
\barc[label=Nice, rotation=true]{7}
\barc[label=Labels, rotation=true]{3}
\end{barchart}
\end{minipage}
\end{center}
\section{Scaling} \section{Scaling}
If the charts become too big or small, it is possible to scale them using \texttt{scale}.
\begin{center}
\begin{minipage}[l][][c]{0.45\linewidth}
\begin{quote}\small
\begin{verbatim}
\begin{barchart}[scale = 0.5]
\barc{5}
\barc{7}
\barc{3}
\end{barchart}
\end{verbatim}
\end{quote}
\end{minipage}
\quad
\begin{minipage}[r][][c]{0.45\linewidth}
\begin{barchart}[scale=0.5]
\barc{5}
\barc{7}
\barc{3}
\end{barchart}
\end{minipage}
\end{center}
But sometimes it is not enough to just scale the chart. Using \texttt{height} it is possible to set a fixed height of the chart.
\begin{center}
\begin{minipage}[l][][c]{0.45\linewidth}
\begin{quote}\small
\begin{verbatim}
\begin{barchart}[min=0, max=500,
step = 100, height=0.05ex]
\barc{500}
\barc{70}
\barc{300}
\end{barchart}
\end{verbatim}
\end{quote}
\end{minipage}
\quad
\begin{minipage}[r][][c]{0.45\linewidth}
\begin{barchart}[min=0, max=500, step = 100, height=0.05ex]
\barc{500}
\barc{70}
\barc{300}
\end{barchart}
\end{minipage}
\end{center}
\section{Known Issues} \section{Known Issues}
