"A picture is worth a thousand words.". A computer usage chart is believed to be more useful than the mere usage data as you might have been able to produce with the python script for your previous assignments. The scripting task for this assignment is to present the usage data produced by the usage_report python script in a graphical chart form.

There are two modules you can use to make such a task easy to achieve:

  1. openpyxl - A Python library to read/write Excel 2010 xlsx/xlsm files
  2. matplotlib - a Python 2D plotting library
