Discussion:
Use of pie charts / bar charts
Why do newspapers and magazines use the pie chart so readily? What are the limitations of the pie chart. If pie charts are not the choice graphic for data to be displayed what would be recommended??? What kinds of data can be displayed with this other form of graphic?
If you do use a pie chart, what do you need to be aware of when using it? With pie charts or any other graphics, where do people get "in trouble"?
