The same plot in 14 other libraries — Python: Altair, Bokeh, lets-plot, Matplotlib, Plotly, plotnine, Pygal; R: ggplot2; Julia: Makie.jl; JavaScript: Chart.js, D3.js, Apache ECharts, Highcharts, MUI X Charts. Compare all 15 side by side: Basic Pie Chart in Python, R, Julia and JavaScript.
A pie chart showing proportions of categorical data as slices of a circle. Each slice represents a category's contribution to the whole, with the angle proportional to its value. Essential for visualizing parts-to-whole relationships in a simple, intuitive format.
