Line Chart
Line series join points on a plot by straight lines, showing data trends at equal intervals. The following code example explains how to create a simple LineSeries using given data
<chart:LineSeries XBindingPath="Year
ItemsSource="{Binding List}" YBindingPath="India"
Interior="#4A4A4A"/>
<chart:LineSeries XBindingPath="Year"
ItemsSource="{Binding List}" YBindingPath="America"
Interior="#4A4A4A"/>LineSeries series1 = new LineSeries()
{
ItemsSource = new ViewModel().List,
XBindingPath = "Year",
YBindingPath = "India",
Interior = new SolidColorBrush(Color.FromRgb(0x4A, 0x4A, 0x4A))
};
LineSeries series2 = new LineSeries()
{
ItemsSource = new ViewModel().List,
XBindingPath = "Year",
YBindingPath = "America",
Interior = new SolidColorBrush(Color.FromRgb(0x4A, 0x4A, 0x4A))
};
chart.Series.Add(series1);
chart.Series.Add(series2);

Step Line Chart
StepLineSeries plots horizontal and vertical lines to connect data points resulting in a step line progression. The following code illustrates how to initialize the StepLineSeries in chart.
<chart:StepLineSeries ItemsSource="{Binding Data}"
XBindingPath="XValue"
YBindingPath="YValue">
</chart:StepLineSeries>StepLineSeries stepLine = new StepLineSeries();
stepLine.ItemsSource = new ViewModel().Data;
stepLine.XBindingPath = "XValue";
stepLine.YBindingPath = "YValue";
SteplineChart.Series.Add(stepLine);
