\begin{Description}
\class{Bars} is a \textbf{subclass} of the module \module{Chart::Base}.
The class \class{Bars} creates a chart with bars.
\end{Description}
\parindent 0pt{\large Example:}
\begin{figure}[h]
\begin{center}
\includegraphics[scale=0.4]{d_bars.png}
\end{center}

\begin{verbatim}
use Chart::Bars;
$g = Chart::Bars->new(600,500);
$g->add_dataset ('Berlin', 'Paris', 'Rome', 'London', 'Munich');

\begin{Constructor}
An instance of a bars chart object can be created with the constructor new():
\begin{quote}
\parindent 0pt
\fett{\$obj = Chart::Bars->new();}\\
\fett{\$obj = Chart::Bars->new(\kursiv{width}, \kursiv{height});}\\
\end{quote}
If \textit{new()} has no arguments,
the constructor returns an image with the size 300x400 pixels.
If new has two arguments \parameter{width} and \parameter{height},
it returns an image with the desired size.
\end{Constructor}
\Methods
\method{All universally valid methods, see page \pageref{methods} of
class \class{Chart::Base}.}\\[\parabstand]
%
\Attributes
All universal valid options, see page \pageref{options}. \\
In addition, the following options for this class are defined:
\begin{description}
\item['y\_axes'] Tell chart where to place the y-axis.
Valid values are 'left', 'right' and 'both'. Defaults to 'left'.
\item['spaced\_bars'] Leaves space between the groups of bars at each data point when set to 'true'.
This just makes it easier to read a bar chart. Default is 'true'.
