`removeRange(range)`

Removes the specified range from the chart this builder modifies. Does not throw an error if the range is not in this chart.

`reverseCategories()`

Reverses the drawing of series in the domain axis. For vertical-range charts (such as line, area or column charts), this means the horizontal axis is drawn from right to left. For horizontal-range charts (such as bar charts), this means the vertical axis is drawn from top to bottom. For pie charts, this means the slices are drawn counterclockwise.
