I find it interesting that they would include a legend containing more information than the actual pie chart. If the pie chart is a visualization of the data received, and there were no \u201cother\u201d or \u201cunknown\u201d genders in the data and pie chart, why include it in the legend <strong>(GNC Visualizations)<\/strong>?<\/p>\n<p>Regarding using the pie chart to visualize data, \u201cthe pie chart suggests that each entry is part of a whole,\u201d which is true as the \u201cwhole\u201d is the gender of illustrators. The percentages of the whole are one of the elements that are clearly visible. Elements are a component of visualization that showcases value against the axis. \u201cIn a pie chart, the percentage is read in relation to an axis\u2014this is the circumference, which forms the 100% boundary of the whole.\u201d The percentages are shown on the colors as the blue takes a huge section of the pie chart, showcasing males as \u201c82%\u201d of the illustrators.
