pie3
3-D pie chart
Syntax
pie3(X)
pie3(X,explode)
pie3(...,labels)
pie3(axes_handle,...)
h = pie3(...)
Description
pie3(X) draws a three-dimensional
pie chart using the data in X. Each element in X is
represented as a slice in the pie chart.
If
sum(X) ≤ 1, then the values inXdirectly specify the area of the pie slices.pie3draws only a partial pie ifsum(X) < 1.If the sum of the elements in
Xis greater than one, thenpie3normalizes the values byX/sum(X)to determine the area of each slice of the pie.
pie3(X,explode) specifies
whether to offset a slice from the center of the pie chart. X(i,j) is
offset from the center of the pie chart if explode(i,j) is
nonzero. explode must be the same size as X.
pie3(...,labels) specifies
text labels for the slices. The number of labels must equal the number
of elements in X.
pie3(axes_handle,...)
plots into the axes with the handle axes_handle instead
of into the current axes (gca).
h = pie3(...) returns
a vector of handles to patch, surface, and text graphics objects.
Examples
Create 3-D Pie Chart
Create a 3-D pie chart of vector x.
x = [1,3,0.5,2.5,2]; figure pie3(x)
To offset the second pie slice, set the corresponding explode element to 1.
explode = [0,1,0,0,0]; figure pie3(x,explode)
Specify Text Labels for 3-D Pie Chart
Create a 3-D pie chart and specify the text labels.
x = 1:3;
labels = {'Taxes','Expenses','Profit'};
figure
pie3(x,labels)
Compare Two Pie Charts
Create vectors y2010 and y2011, that contain financial data for two years. Then create a cell array containing the labels for the values.
y2010 = [50 0 100 95];
y2011 = [65 22 97 120];
labels = {'Investments','Cash','Operations','Sales'};Create a 2-by-1 tiled chart layout, and display a pie chart and legend for y2010 data in the first tile. Then display a pie chart and legend for the y2011 data in the second tile.
t = tiledlayout (2,1); ax1 = nexttile; pie3(ax1,y2010) title('2010') legend(labels) ax2 = nexttile; pie3(ax2,y2011) title('2011') legend(labels)
