Pie Multiples
license: gpl-3.0

An example of multiple pie (donut) charts created with D3. The data is represented as a two-dimensional array of numbers; each row in the array is mapped to a pie chart. Thus, each pie represents the relative value of a number (such as 1,013) within its rows. Note that in this dataset, the totals for each row are not equal.

// Define the margin, radius, and color scale. The color scale will be
// assigned by index, but if you define your data using objects, you could pass
// in a named field from the data object instead, such as `d.name`. Colors
// are assigned lazily, so if you want deterministic behavior, define a domain
// for the color scale.
var m = 10,
r = 100,
z = d3.scale.category20c();
// Insert an svg element (with margin) for each row in our dataset. A child g
// element translates the origin to the pie center.

.attr("width", (r + m) * 2)

// The data for each svg element is a row of numbers (an array). We pass that to
// d3.layout.pie to compute the angles for each arc. These start and end angles
// are passed to d3.svg.arc to draw arcs! Note that the arc radius is specified
// on the arc, not the layout.
