Hey, So I am currently new to turing and I want to create a pie graph! Basicly I just need the background lines of to create a pie graph.


Well, too further, what I'm trying to do is that if let's say I ask the user.

How many drinks have you drank today:

Coca Cola : 2

Sprite : 1

Root Beer : 3


Now I would fill my pie graph with that data, but as you have read my problem is that I don't know how to start it up...?

So... do you know any syntax? Becuase I could help, but I don't want to waste my time if you don't know anything yet...
If the answer is no, I would learn the language a bit first (there's a pretty thorough tutorial on this site).
If the answer is yes, then do you have any code yet?

Basically it would require knowledge of loops, drawing and a bit of trigonometry.

No trig is required actually if you use the built in modules.

Look up Draw.FillArc in the help files.

Well, actually, listen to Zren, it's probs much simpler his way.

Thank you. I will definitely look at it.


Edit: WOW Thank you! Totally helped me alot. Very Happy

Edit2: Sorry for so many questions, but I will also need to input my data into a bar graph, is it just with the Draw.Box function, and the Draw.FillBox?
