Pie charts are circular statistical graphics where each slice represents a proportion of the whole. They are ideal for comparing a small number of categories, with features like sorting and exploding slices that draw attention to key segments.
This sample visualizes the composition of the United States population by race according to the 2010 Census. Seven racial categories are sorted in descending order, and the “White” slice is exploded by default to highlight the largest group. A right-side vertical legend lists every category, letting visitors hover to highlight and click to explode or collapse individual slices.
