How can I create a multiple line graph with a categorical X-axis?

Hey team, I'm Darshan Hiranandani,  I need to create a multiple line graph with a categorical X-axis for my project. Does anyone have any suggestions or best practices on how to achieve this? Your input would be greatly appreciated!

  3. Drag column Miles to the Y Drop area
  4. Drag column Season to the X Drop area
  5. Drag column Species to the Overlay drop area
  6. Click on the Line icon to change the displayed points to a line chart
