Hourly Moving average over a duration - jfreechart

Question

I am trying to create a Moving average line based on hour for a selected duration. I want the x-axis to represent 24 hours of the day and the y-axis to represent the average value of each hour for the entire duration. For eg, I want the hourly average for the month of april of a person's effort.
I have written the following program but it prints the two days after the first. Any help is highly appreciated.

Answer 1

From what I understand from your comments, you really want to display 4 series on your plot, not 2 - i.e.
01-May-2012 New
02-May-2012 New
01-May-2012 Cancelled
02-May-2012 Cancelled
You could then change your getDateByHour() method, or better yet, combine with the new Hour(Date) constructor called several times in createDataset():
private Hour makeHour(int hour) {
return new Hour(hour, 1, 1, 2012);
}
The actual day/month/year you use shouldn't matter, because you have set the DateFormat as "HH", so none of that gets rendered. (Providing you don't change the x-axis later...)
