A pie chart (or a circle graph) is a circular chart divided into sectors, illustrating relative magnitudes or frequences or percents. In a pie chart, the arc length of each sector (and consequently its central angle and area), is proportional to the quantity it represents. Together, the sectors create a full disk. It is named for its resemblance to a pie which has been sliced. Statisticians tend to regard pie charts as a poor method of displaying information. While pie charts are common in business and journalism, they are uncommon in scientific literature. One reason for this is that it is more difficult for comparisons to be made between the size of items in a chart when area is used instead of length.
Lets see the the pie in different angle as below. its a good method of displaying information to me :p
