Help with a kendo chart

Hello,

I need a little help with a kendo chart.  I have attached my "attempt" below.

What i am trying to do is have a bar chart with 12 bars each with a single value.  I need to give each bar a seperate colour.  An example is shown below.

I am trying to separate my data from everything else such as the bar colours.  

I am not a JS expert, or kendo expert!, and i can't seem to get the chart working.  I think i am 80% there but there is an error(s) in the code.

  var  zdata = 
                [{"name": "Vanföreställningar", "data": "4"},
                {name: "Hallucinationer", data: [4]},
	{name: "Agitation/aggressivitet",data: [9]},
                {name: "Depression/dysfori", data: [4]},
                {name: "Ångest", data: [2]},
                {name: "Eufori/upprymdhet", data: [1]},

                {name: "Aptit/ätstörningar", data: [12]}] ;

Have you tried putting quotes around the fields in the zdata JSON?
