pie charts
Sliced statistical circles
A pie chart is a circular graph divided into wedge-shaped sections, each representing a proportion of the whole.
The slices show how parts relate to the total—budget allocations, survey responses, market share.
Pie charts work best for a few categories; with too many slices, they become hard to read.
