Figure 3-7. Sample Pie Chart
A pie, or circle, chart is a circle composed of wedges, each
representing a different item. Pie charts are most useful in
illustrating the relative sizes of the components of the
whole (for example, total revenue by cost center).
Parameters are provided to control the definition of chart
labels and data element formats for both color and printer
graphics.
For color graphics, parameters are provided to control the
pattern and color used to fill pie slices; the color of chart
text; the definition of pie slices; the ability to emphasize
selected slices by separating them from the rest of the pie
(often called exploded pie slices); and the ability to
generate groups of related pie charts on a single page.
For printer graphics, parameters are provided to control the
definition of pie slices, chart labels, and data element
formats.
Figure 3-7 is a sample pie chart representing the total
number of program executions by program name. Each wedge
shows the number of executions and the percent of the total
for a program. Programs contributing a small percentage of
the total are shown summarized in a single group named
"OTHER."
