+# Example (JKQTPlotter): Barchart With Error Bars {#JKQTPlotterBarchartsErrorBars}
+This project (see [`barchart_errorbars`](https://github.com/jkriege2/JKQtPlotter/tree/master/examples/barchart_errorbars) shows how to draw barcharts with different styles of error indicators.
+
+The source code of the main application is (see [`barchart_errorbars.cpp`](https://github.com/jkriege2/JKQtPlotter/tree/master/examples/barchart_errorbars/barchart_errorbars.cpp):
+```.cpp
+    // 1. create a plotter window and get a pointer to the internal datastore (for convenience)
+    JKQTPDatastore* ds=plot.getDatastore();
+
+    // 2. now we create three columns for key and value
+    size_t columnK=ds->addLinearColumn(6, 0.4*JKQTPSTATISTICS_PI, 2.2*JKQTPSTATISTICS_PI,"k");
+    size_t columnV=ds->addColumnCalculatedFromColumn(columnK, &cos, "v");
+    size_t columnE=ds->addColumnCalculatedFromColumn(columnK, [](double x) { return 0.05+0.06*(1.0+sin(x)); }, "error");
+
+    // 3. create a graph in the plot, which plots the dataset with symmetric:
+    JKQTPBarVerticalErrorGraph* graph1=new JKQTPBarVerticalErrorGraph(&plot);
+    graph1->setKeyColumn(columnK);
+    graph1->setValueColumn(columnV);
+    graph1->setBarErrorColumn(columnE);
+    // set error indicator style
+    graph1->setBarErrorStyle(JKQTPErrorBars);
+    graph1->setTitle(QObject::tr("JKQTPErrorBars"));
+    plot.addGraph(graph1);
+
+    // 4. create a second graph in the plot, which plots the second dataset with outer error bars only:
+    JKQTPBarVerticalErrorGraph* graph2=new JKQTPBarVerticalErrorGraph(&plot);
+    graph2->setKeyColumn(columnK);
+    graph2->setValueColumn(columnV);
+    graph2->setBarErrorColumn(columnE);
+    // set error indicator style
+    graph2->setBarErrorStyle(JKQTPErrorHalfBarsOutwards);
+    graph2->setTitle(QObject::tr("JKQTPErrorHalfBarsOutwards"));
+    plot.addGraph(graph2);
+
+    // 5. now we set the graphs, so they are plotted side-by-side
+    //    This function searches all JKQTPBarHorizontalGraph in the current
+    //    plot and sets their shift/scale so they form a nice plot with
+    //    side-by-side groups
+    graph1->autoscaleBarWidthAndShift(0.9, 0.9);
+
+
+    // 6 autoscale the plot so the graph is contained
+    plot.zoomToFit();
+
+    // 7. show plotter and make it a decent size
+    plot.getPlotter()->setKeyPosition(JKQTPKeyInsideTopLeft);
+    plot.setWindowTitle(title);
+    plot.show();
+    plot.resize(400,400);
+```
+
+
+The result looks like this:
+
+![barchart_errorbars](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jkriege2/JKQtPlotter/master/screenshots/barchart_errorbars.png)
+
+
+
+In order to draw horizontal error bars, you have to use `JKQTPBarHorizontalErrorGraph` instead of `JKQTPBarVerticalErrorGraph`:
