Hi there,
I want to plot error bar graph for categorical graph, example

meanForGroup1 = 4.3;
meanForGroup2 = 4.9;
stdevForGroup1 = 2.3;
stdevForGroup2 = 2.5;

The graph should be an error bar graph: two error bars for group1 and group2, centering at means and ranges as +- 1 standard deviations for group1 and group2. How can I do this?

The graph should look like this: (hope alignment works)

_
| _
X |
| |
- X
|
|
-
Gr1 Gr2

where X is the mean and the range of the bar is plus/minus one standard deviation.
How could I graph this?

Thanks!
Diego
