    Is it possible to grab data from a graph (not table)?

    It would be super neat if this was possible, but I'm not at all sure how to even do it (if it IS possible). I used a handful of formulas to create a table so that I could create a normal distribution (an XY scatter plot with smooth lines). So, now I have my bell curve and it'd be really neat if...
