R Pie Charts

There is the following syntax of the pie() function:

1. pie(X, Labels, Radius, Main, Col, Clockwise)  
 X is a vector that contains the numeric values used in the pie chart.
 Labels are used to give the description to the slices.
 Radius describes the radius of the pie chart.
 Main describes the title of the chart.
 Col defines the color palette.
 Clockwise is a logical value that indicates the clockwise or anti-clockwise
direction in which slices are drawn.
# Creating data for the graph.  
x <- c(20, 65, 15, 50)  
labels <- c("India", "America", "Shri Lanka", "Nepal")  
# Giving the chart file a name.  
png(file = "Country.jpg")  
# Plotting the chart.  
pie(x,labels)  
# Saving the file.  
dev.off()  

pie(x,labels,main="Country Pie chart",col=rainbow(length(x)))  

Slice Percentage & Chart Legend

legend(x,y=NULL,legend,fill,col,bg)  

o x and y are the coordinates to be used to position the legend.


o legend is the text of legend
o fill is the color to use for filling the boxes beside the legend text.
o col defines the color of line and points besides the legend text.
o bg is the background color for the legend box.
# Creating data for the graph.  
x <- c(20, 65, 15, 50)  
labels <- c("India", "America", "Shri Lanka", "Nepal")
