A washer chart with a line style and gridlines

Write code · Medium · §2.4 Finishing and saving a single chart

Draw a line chart of how many washers were running at each hour in the campus laundry room. Draw the line as a dashed line ("--"), and mark each value with a circle marker ("o").

Add the title Washers in use by hour, the x-axis label Hour, and the y-axis label Washers in use. The laundry room has 16 washers in all, so make the y-axis run from 0 to 16. Draw horizontal gridlines at the y-axis ticks only.
