    Open AccessPeer-Reviewed17/07/2024IQS School of Management, Universitat Ramon Llull

  • Are pie charts evil? An assessment of the value of pie and donut charts compared to bar charts
    Open AccessPeer-Reviewed24/06/2024University of Surrey
    Many data visualization experts recommend the use of bar charts over pie charts because they consider comparing the area or angle of segments to be less accurate than comparing bars on a bar chart. However, many studies show that when the pie chart is used to estimate proportions (arguably its main function) it is as […]
