Question
Create a Java FX GUI program that allows the user to select and open a file from a menu and then presents a chart of the file's data. Must do the following Program includes a menu Menu allows selection of a file via a file chooser Menu allows selection of several different types of charts Charts correctly display the data from the selected file The goal of this project is to write a Java FX GUI program that uses a menu to control the various program functions and display a chart. The menu should provide functionality to allow the user to select a file and present the file's data in a chart. Additionally the menu should allow the user to select from 4 different JavaFX (BarChart, AreaChart, LineChart, StackedChart) charts. Please use the provided CSV file for the data. The data covers program files written in different languages spread across four quarters. data.csv Winter Python 42 Winter C++ 150 Winter Java 125 Winter C# 105 Spring Python 65 Spring C++ 110 Spring Java 178 Spring C# 120 Summer Python 56 Summer C++ 109 Summer Java 145 Summer C# 204 Fall Python 64 Fall C++ 95 Fall Java 168 Fall C# 139

Explanation / Answer
In the program the code for
DataModel class is missing
So include class DataModel{
......
}
and try it
