ABSTRACT:
Pie, bar and line charts are extended in plural dimensions to graphically illustrate plural data sets. In a pie figure, the angle of each slice is defined by a first data set, and both the thickness and radius of each pie slice may be defined in accordance with second and third data sets. In a bar graph, the height of each bar is defined by a first data set, and the thickness and width of each bar may be defined by second and third data sets. In a line graph, the position of the line is defined by a first data set while the thickness and width of the line may be defined by second and third data sets. Scales may be positioned adjacent to the pie chart to measure the additional dimensions, and the pie chart may be rotated to position taller slices behind shorter ones.
