title: How do I plot elements of a list?
body: <p>I have imported yahoo data into a list of lists so that each list has all the data for each day.  I want to use the first entry (date entry) of the list for the abscissa.  I have gone through a lot of examples and many use dictionaries which I am unfamiliar with.  I figured something like this:</p>
  
  <p><code>chart.plot(data[:][0], data[:][1])</code></p>
  
  <p>would work but it doesn't.  Apparently, <code>data[:][0]</code> will just give you the first list as opposed to the first element of every list.  I know, I could just make 2 new lists of all the dates and say stock prices with a for loop but that seems wrong.</p>
