Adding the title

Now that the data and x-axis have been added, the next step is to add a title to the visualization so that users can understand what the visualization is supposed to measure.

For the 2 loan visualization graphs, the goal is to measure the percentage paid to interest and principal over time and the cumulative payments over time. Entering in a new chart title can be found in the Customize menu under Chart and Axis Titles.

You should only need to change the title, not the axis labels.

After this correction, you'll still see blank space on the x-axis. Don't worry! We'll be fixing that after the next video.
