How to Draw a Pie Chart

A pie chart represents data, in a clear and easy to read around (pie) form. A circular pie chart is divided into sections (slice). Each "slice" depicts the It reflects the proportion of each component in the whole "pie". This type of chart is most often used for the visualization of statistical data. That is why pie charts are widely used in marketing. As the pie charts show proportional parts of a whole, they are good for various visual comparisons. For example, it is difficult to imagine a more intuitive way to show segmentation and market share. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM allows you to draw a simple and clear Pie Chart using the Pie Charts solution.

Pie Charts

Pie Charts are extensively used in statistics and business for explaining data and work results, in mass media for comparison (i.e. to visualize the percentage for the parts of one total), and in many other fields. The Pie Charts solution for ConceptDraw DIAGRAM offers powerful drawing tools, varied templates, samples, and a library of vector stencils for simple construction and design of Pie Charts, Donut Chart, and Pie Graph Worksheets.

The Pie Chart visualizes the data as the proportional parts of a whole and looks like a disk divided into sectors. The pie chart is type of graph, pie chart looks as circle devided into sectors. Pie Charts are widely used in the business, statistics, analytics, mass media. It’s very effective way of displaying relative sizes of parts, the proportion of the whole thing.

Pie Chart Software

A pie chart is a circular diagram showing a set of data divided into proportional slices. There are several variations of this chart such as donut chart, exploded pie chart, multi-level pie charts. Although it is not very informative when a ring chart or circle chart has many sections, so choosing a low number of data points is quite important for a useful pie chart.
ConceptDraw DIAGRAM software with Pie Charts solution helps to create pie and donut charts for effective displaying proportions in statistics, business and mass media for composition comparison, i.e. for visualization of part percentage inside one total.

The Pie Donut Chart visualizes the percentage of parts of the whole and looks like as a ring divided into sectors. Pie Donut Charts are widely used in the business, statistics, analytics, mass media.

Pie Chart Examples and Templates

A pie chart or a circle graph is a circular chart divided into sectors, illustrating numerical proportion. In a pie chart, the arc length of each sector and consequently its central angle and area, is proportional to the quantity it represents.

How to Draw the Different Types of Pie Charts

Using a Pie Chart, you can visually estimate the relative contribution that different data categories contribute to a whole value. The pie chart displays the statistics in a visual format. The main use of pie charts to show comparisons. The larger piece of the pie, the more the value of this value compared to the rest. Various applications of pie charts can be found in business and education. For business, pie charts can be used to compare the success or failure of the goods or services. They may also be used to display the business market share.

"An obvious flaw exhibited by pie charts is that they cannot show more than a few values without separating the visual encoding (the “slices”) from the data they represent (typically percentages). When slices become too small, pie charts have to rely on colors, textures or arrows so the reader can understand them. This makes them unsuitable for use with larger amounts of data. Pie charts also take up a larger amount of space on the page compared to the more flexible alternative of bar charts, which do not need to have separate legends, and can also display other values such as averages or targets at the same time.
Statisticians generally regard pie charts as a poor method of displaying information, and they are uncommon in scientific literature. One reason is that it is more difficult for comparisons to be made between the size of items in a chart when area is used instead of length and when different items are shown as different shapes.
Further, in research performed at AT&T Bell Laboratories, it was shown that comparison by angle was less accurate than comparison by length. This can be illustrated with the diagram to the right, showing three pie charts, and, below each of them, the corresponding bar chart representing the same data. Most subjects have difficulty ordering the slices in the pie chart by size; when the bar chart is used the comparison is much easier. Similarly, comparisons between data sets are easier using the bar chart. However, if the goal is to compare a given category (a slice of the pie) with the total (the whole pie) in a single chart and the multiple is close to 25 or 50 percent, then a pie chart can often be more effective than a bar graph."

Pie charts are very widely used in the business world and the mass media. However, they have been criticized, and many experts recommend avoiding them, pointing out that research has shown it is difficult to compare different sections of a given pie chart, or to compare data across different pie charts. Pie charts can be replaced in most cases by other plots such as the bar chart. ...
