Hello! It's a shoot in the dark, but I'll try. If one has a total of 100 (e.g., %), and three components of the total, e.g., mytotal=data.frame(x=50,y=30,z=20), - one could build a pie chart with 3 sectors representing x, y, and z according to their proportions in the total. I am wondering if it's possible to build something very similar, but not on a circle but in a square...
Is this still going on? Okay, here's a square pie: squarePie<-function(slices,x0=0,y0=0,x1=1,y1=1,firstcall=TRUE,pos=1, col=NULL,show.values=TRUE,...) { sliceprop<-slices[1]/sum(slices) if(firstcall) { oldmar<-par(mar=c(2,2,3,2)) plot(0,xlim=c(0,1),ylim=c(0,1),xaxs="i",yaxs="i",type="n",axes=FALSE, xlab="",ylab="",...) if(is.null(col)) col=rainbow(length(slices)) } if(pos == 1) { ytop<-y0+(y1-y0)*sliceprop rect(x0,y0,x1,ytop,col=col[1]) if(show.values) text((x0+x1)/2,(y0+ytop)/2,slices[1]) y0<-ytop } if(pos == 2) { xright<-x0+(x1-x0)*sliceprop rect(x0,y0,xright,y1,col=col[1]) if(show.values) text((x0+xright)/2,(y0+y1)/2,slices[1]) x0<-xright } if(pos == 3) { ybottom<-y1-(y1-y0)*sliceprop rect(x0,ybottom,x1,y1,col=col[1]) if(show.values) text((x0+x1)/2,(ybottom+y1)/2,slices[1]) y1<-ybottom } if(pos == 4) { xleft<-x1-(x1-x0)*sliceprop rect(xleft,y0,x1,y1,col=col[1]) if(show.values) text((xleft+x1)/2,(y0+y1)/2,slices[1]) x1<-xleft } pos<-ifelse(pos==4,1,pos+1) if(length(slices > 1)) squarePie(slices[-1],x0,y0,x1,y1,firstcall=FALSE,pos=pos,col=col[-1]) if(firstcall) par(oldmar) } squarePie(c(4,3,6,2,5,1),main="A square meal from Oz") Jim ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
