`tots` stands for “TO Time Series” you can find its details here: [Forecast.jl/src/utils\_datetime.jl at main · viraltux/Forecast.jl · GitHub](https://github.com/viraltux/Forecast.jl/blob/main/src/utils_datetime.jl)

However if you are just to plot numeric values you don’t need to add anything.

Yes, you simply

```julia
plot(df)

```
