## org.jfree.chart.axis
Class NumberAxis

    java.lang.Object
      org.jfree.chart.axis.Axis
          org.jfree.chart.axis.ValueAxis
              org.jfree.chart.axis.NumberAxis

All Implemented Interfaces:
  java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable, org.jfree.util.PublicCloneable

Direct Known Subclasses:
  CyclicNumberAxis, LogarithmicAxis, ModuloAxis, NumberAxis3D, SymbolAxis

    public class NumberAxis

extends ValueAxis
implements java.lang.Cloneable, java.io.Serializable

An axis for displaying numerical data.

If the axis is set up to automatically determine its range to fit the data, you can ensure that the range includes zero (statisticians usually prefer this) by setting the `autoRangeIncludesZero` flag to `true`.

The `NumberAxis` class has a mechanism for automatically selecting a tick unit that is appropriate for the current axis range. This mechanism is an adaptation of code suggested by Laurence Vanhelsuwe.

  Parameters:
    `unit` - the new tick unit (`null` not permitted).
    `notify` - notify listeners?
    `turnOffAutoSelect` - turn off the auto-tick selection?

    The number formatter (possibly `null`).
  See Also:
    `setNumberFormatOverride(NumberFormat)`

### setNumberFormatOverride

    public void setNumberFormatOverride(java.text.NumberFormat formatter)

  Sets the number format override. If this is non-null, then it will be used to format the numbers on the axis.

  Parameters:

  See Also:
    `getNumberFormatOverride()`

### getMarkerBand

    public MarkerAxisBand getMarkerBand()
