We want each bar to be labeled with
the height of the bar, and
Bar : Legend
(130) shows how we can do this. This
section shows how to use the
blabel()
(bar label) option to label the bars in
lieu of legends.
blabel()
also can label
the bars with their height, using
blabel(bar)
.

We want the labels for each bar to end
in two decimal places, and we see in
Bar : Legend
(130) that we can use the
