in thread How to create a chart with data from database

The sample script defines data for the cahrt as under

# Add the worksheet data that the charts will refer to.
my $headings = [ 'Category', 'Values 1', 'Values 2' ];
my $data = [
    [ 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 ],
    [ 1, 4, 5, 2, 1, 5 ],
    [ 3, 6, 7, 5, 4, 3 ],
];

$worksheet->write( 'A1', $headings, $bold );
$worksheet->write( 'A2', $data );

Question

How do I map my data that is retrieved from the database to the chart ?

I don't have excel so I cant help
