04 Dec Create a Pie Chart in Tableau
A pie chart, also known as a pie graph or circle graph, is a circular statistical graphic divided into slices to illustrate numerical proportions. Each slice represents a category and its size visually represents an item’s proportion to the total. Here’s an example:
Suppose we want to show the distribution of favorite sports among a group of 100 students:
- Cricket: 45 students
- Football: 25 students
- Hockey: 15 students
- Tennis: 15 students
The pie chart would have:
- A circle representing the total (100 students)
- Slices representing each sport, with sizes proportional to the number of students
