adding series from existing highcharts chart

i have made a chart using highcharts, and i want to redraw my high chart, but this line of code is confusing me and not allowing me to add existing data. this adds random data, but what i want is to add data from the javascript...

// Add the new series.
chart.addSeries({ data: Highcharts.map(Array(12), Math.random) }, false);

other code:

 $(".test").change(function() {
    var value = this.getAttribute("value");
    while (chart.series.length > 0) {
        chart.series[0].remove(true);
    }
    if (value == 'a') {
        loadA(chart);
    } else if (value == 'b') {
        chart.xAxis[0].update({categories: ['Sun', 'Mon', 'Tue']});
        chart.addSeries({
            name: 'Rainfall4',
            type: 'column',
            color: '#FF00FF',  
            data:[100, 280, 300, 490, 670, 900]             
        });            
        chart.yAxis[0].setTitle({ text: "Raw" });
    } else if (value == 'c') {
        chart.xAxis[0].update({categories: ['Oranges',  'Pears', 'Pinneaples',  'other']});

this is the Jsfiddle:

want something like

  chart.series[0].setData([129.2, 144.0, 176.0, 135.6, 148.5, 216.4, 194.1, 95.6, 54.4, 29.9, 71.5, 106.4] );
});

this is what you need

function redraw(chart) {

// Delete all the series.
/*
while (chart.series.length > 0) {
    chart.series[0].remove(false);
}
*/

// Add the new series.

 chart.series[0].setData([129.2, 144.0, 176.0, 135.6, 148.5, 216.4, 194.1, 95.6, 54.4, 29.9, 71.5,   106.4]);
chart.redraw();
