"Practical Reporting with Ruby and Rails"


Creating a Line Chart
Suppose that Transmegtech Studios is close to releasing its new strategy game, but the
artificial intelligence is still not very good. Without a competitive artificial intelligence for
single-player mode, players will quickly become bored with the game, which means that
they will stop playing.
Your boss would like to dramatically improve the artificial intelligence. He wants to
analyze the strategy of each player by producing a ???scorecard??? that shows the player??™s
average time to accomplish each major goal in the game. The theory is that the order in
which goals are achieved will reveal a significant amount about the player??™s strategy, and
if the programmers can mimic that order, they can build a better computer player. (This
is a strategy that has worked well for other real-time strategy games.) The Transmegtech
game has a variety of goals, from building a company??™s data center (DC) component all
the way to the player??™s company going public, which is the game-winning event.
