That example is from the Graph class, and is an example of how you
might subclass the Graph class to create your own type of chart.  As
such, it isn't a runnable example.  You don't use the Graph class
directly unless you're subclassing it.

Actually, it is silly to have that example in there, because all of
the chart types are better examples of subclassing Graph.  However,
the documentation is, by and large, just a Ruby-ized copy of the Perl
documentation, so some cruft is left over.

Use one of the subclasses instead, such as Bar, BarHorizontal, Plot,
Pie, or TimeSeries.  They each have examples that should work,
although I admit that I haven't tested those examples.  Even better,
look at the programs in the test/ subdirectory; those *do* work.
