Example:

# Instantiating a Workbook object
workbook = Workbook()
# Obtaining the reference of the first worksheet
worksheet = workbook.getWorksheets().get(0)
# Adding a sample value to "A1" cell
worksheet.getCells().get("A1").putValue(50)
# Adding a sample value to "A2" cell
worksheet.getCells().get("A2").putValue(100)
# Adding a sample value to "A3" cell
worksheet.getCells().get("A3").putValue(150)
# Adding a sample value to "B1" cell
worksheet.getCells().get("B1").putValue(60)
# Adding a sample value to "B2" cell
worksheet.getCells().get("B2").putValue(32)
# Adding a sample value to "B3" cell
worksheet.getCells().get("B3").putValue(50)
# Adding a chart to the worksheet
chartIndex = worksheet.getCharts().add(ChartType.COLUMN, 5, 0, 15, 5)
# Accessing the instance of the newly added chart
chart = worksheet.getCharts().get(chartIndex)
# Adding NSeries (chart data source) to the chart ranging from "A1" cell to "B3"
chart.getNSeries().add("A1:B3", True)
# Getting Chart Area
chartArea = chart.getChartArea()
# Setting the foreground color of the chart area
chartArea.getArea().setForegroundColor(Color.getYellow())
# Setting Chart Area Shadow
chartArea.setShadow(True)
# Saving the Excel file
workbook.save("Book1.xls")
