##### Line interpolation behavior

The way data is sent to line-chart will have significant impacts on how the component will render lines. Here are three main scenarios you can take advantage of to ensure lines are rendered as need be for your use case.

| Scenario | Description | Expected Result |
| ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| All values present and passed to chart | The data object array passed has a valid numeric value or valueAccessor for each ordinalAccessor, and seriesAccessor value. |
Each point on line is rendered. |
| Missing values not passed to chart | The data object array passed has a valid numeric value or valueAccessor for some ordinalAccessor, and seriesAccessor values. E.g., null valueAccessor values are filtered, before sending data object to chart. |
Lines will connect/interpolate over data which is not sent to chart. |
| Missing values are passed to chart | The data object array passed has a valid numeric value or valueAccessor for some ordinalAccessor, and seriesAccessor values. Also, null or undefined values are passed for any missing data. E.g., null valueAccessor values are included when sending data object to chart. |
Lines will break to reflect the null or undefined data passed. |
