  Pie Charts

Pie charts are specifc type o data presentation where the data is represented in the

orm o a circle.in a pie chart, a circle is divide into various sections or segments such

that each sector or segments represents a certai proprtion or percentage o the total.

In such a diagram, the total o all the given itms is equated to 360 degrees and the

degrees o angles, representing dierent items, are calculated proportionately. !he

entire diagram loo"s li"e a pie and its components resem#le slices cut rom a pie. !he

pie chart is used to show the #rea"$up o one continuos varia#le into its component

parts.

%or e&ample, %ig. ' shows the distri#ution og the sales o the car industry #etween

si& car company

(oo"ing at %ig.', we can iner that

)aruti accounts or *+ o the mar"et

share.while -) accounts or 3 o the

mar"et share, %ord or + o the mar"et

share, /yundai or ' o the mar"et

share and %iat or '* o the mar"et

share.

 !he pie chart encompasses a circle o 

360 degrees, which represents '00 o 

the value o the continuous varia#le.

 !hus, 3.6 degrees on the pie chart

represent ' o the total value o the

continuous varia#le #eing represented.

  single pie diagram can represent only one continuous varia#le. /ence, in terms o 

versatility o data representation, pie charts are less versatile than either o #ar

charts, &$y graphs orta#les. /owever, their utility is in the act that the presentation

o data is cleaner and it gives an immedaite idea o the relative distri#ution o the

continuous varia#le amongst dierent sectors.

 !he ollowing e&ercise will ma"e the use o Pie$charts clear to you.
