## The `type' property

Character Vector (For Chart and Series), Integer Scalar (for Socket)

Valid for: Chart, Series, Socket

#### Chart Object

The `type` property for a Chart object determines the type of graph which will be drawn. It is one of: `'line'` `'stair'` `'area'` `'scatter'` `'bar'` `'stackedbar'` `'horizbar'` `'horizstackedbar'` `'hilo'` `'candle'` `'pie'` or `'mixed'`. See the separate section on properties of the Chart object for details.

#### Series Object

Where a Chart object is of type `'mixed'`, each Series displayed on the chart will be displayed according to its own `type` property. The valid values are `'line'` `'stair'` `'area'` `'scatter'` `'bar'` `'hilo'` and `'candle'`

#### Socket Object

For a Socket object, the `type` property is an integer which determines the type of socket connection required. The valid values are: 1 = Stream socket, 2 = Datagram socket, 3 = Raw-protocol interface, 4 = Reliably-delivered message, 5= Sequenced packet stream.

The default is 1.
