Syntax

Drawing a pie chart is simple:
  1. Start with pie keyword
  2. Optionally add showData to display values
  3. Optionally add title with a string
  4. Add data pairs: "label" : value
pie [showData] [title <titleText>]
    "<label1>" : <value1>
    "<label2>" : <value2>
    "<label3>" : <value3>
Pie chart values must be positive numbers greater than zero. Negative values are not allowed and will result in an error.
