A PIE CHART USING MATPLOTLIB
Pie charts are ideal for displaying proportional data among categories. The pie function from Matplotlib provides an easy way to achieve this. Listing 8.2 displays the content of pie_chart1.py that ChatGPT generated to render a pie chart using Matplotlib. The prompt for ChatGPT is shown here:
“Please generate Python code to render a pie chart using Matplotlib.”
LISTING 8.2: pie_chart1.py
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
def plot_pie(labels, sizes, title):
plt.pie(sizes, labels=labels, autopct='%1.1f%%', startangle=140)
plt.title(title)
plt.axis('equal') # Equal aspect ratio ensures the pie
is drawn as a circle.
plt.show()
# Usage
labels = ['A', 'B', 'C']
sizes = [215, 130, 245]
plot_pie(labels, sizes, 'Sample Pie Chart')
Listing 8.2 starts in a similar fashion to Listing 8.1, except that the plot_pie() function for generating a pie chart is generated. The next portion...
