I've already tried to play with this paths, but no matter:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.highcharts.com/highcharts.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.highcharts.com/modules/exporting.js"></script>
How to set a right path? For example, I use path like "highcharts/js/highcharts.js" and it's real exist in a project directory.

You missed the
</html>
tag at the end.
However, your code on a fiddle works well.

I just copied your code and paste it in a html file. It's working very fine.
Here is the screenshot

TypeError: $(...).highcharts is not a function - Existing solutions not working - problems with Yeoman generator

I am following the highcharts get started tutorial here: http://www.highcharts.com/docs/getting-started/your-first-chart
For some reason the code works in a separate HTML file, but not when it's part of my Yeoman built web application
I've fallen at the first hurdle and get the following error:
TypeError: $(...).highcharts is not a function
My code is below and here is the full error:
TypeError: $(...).highcharts is not a function

There are multiple other posts about this - however none of the solutions have worked for me, can't see what I'm doing wrong here, all I've done is copy the tutorial.
Here is my HTML file:

works fine. Just removed the double closing brackets from closing html tag.

undefined is not a function epoch js

I am trying to run the basic example for a line chart from epoch (which is built on top of d3 ) http://fastly.github.io/epoch/basic/
Below is the code provided in the website:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="d3.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="epoch.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.11.2.min.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="css/epoch.min.css">
</head>
<body>
<div id="lineChart" style="width: 800px; height: 200px"></div>
<script>
var lineChartData = [
// First series
{
label: "Series 1",
values: [ {time: 1370044800, y: 100}, {time: 1370044801, y: 1000}]
},
// The second series
{
label: "Series 2",
values: [ {time: 1370044800, y: 78}, {time: 1370044801, y: 98}]
},
];
$('#lineChart').epoch({
type: 'time.bar',
data: lineChartData
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
I am getting : Uncaught TypeError: undefined is not a function index.html:(line that has epoch keyword in it) (anonymous function)
Any ideas what is missed here?
You just need to switch your script includes around a little, putting jquery first:
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-1.11.2.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="d3.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="epoch.min.js"></script>

I've looked up examples of what people have told me, but now I am confused between being told I need to parse,pluck,get,and a list of other things that I have no clue what to look into so I can actually use this data, but I am looking for an explanation of whats actually going on also (I really don't find it helpful to see a bunch of code where half of it I don't understand because I haven't learned to that yet, its rather depressing)

I got a special character '?' when I copy your code just after the last semicolon.
Try to copy your code in a text editor (notepad++ for me), remove this character and copy again your page.
It has worked for me.
I took out the very last ";" in the jQuery block of code and it worked. Weird...
In the future I advice to use jslint which check your syntax.
