"""
=================
Nested pie charts
=================

The following examples show two ways to build a nested pie chart
in Matplotlib.

"""

from matplotlib import pyplot as plt
import numpy as np

###############################################################################
# The most straightforward way to build a pie chart is to use the
# :meth:`pie method <matplotlib.axes.Axes.pie>`
#
# In this case, pie takes values corresponding to counts in a group.
# We'll first generate some fake data, corresponding to three groups.
# In the outer circle, we'll treat each number as belonging to its
# own group. In the inner circle, we'll plot them as members of their
# original 3 groups.

vals = np.array([[1, 2, 3, 4], [2, 3, 4, 5], [3, 4, 5, 6]])
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.pie(vals.flatten(), radius=1.2,
colors=plt.rcParams["axes.prop_cycle"].by_key()["color"][:vals.shape[1]])
ax.pie(vals.sum(axis=1), radius=1)
ax.set(aspect="equal", title='Pie plot with `ax.pie`')

plt.show()

# However, you can accomplish the same output by using a bar plot on
# axes with a polar coordinate system. This may give more flexibility on
# the exact design of the plot.

I think the two examples should show the same data (if not necessarily the same style). For the one below, that probably means calling something like np.histogram(data, cumulative=True) * 2 * np.pi and fiddling with partial sums.

#
# In this case, we need to map x-values of the bar chart onto radians of
# a circle.

fig, ax = plt.subplots(subplot_kw=dict(polar=True))

left_inner = np.arange(0.0, 2 * np.pi, 2 * np.pi / 6)
left_middle = np.arange(0.0, 2 * np.pi, 2 * np.pi / 12)
left_outer = np.arange(0.0, 2 * np.pi, 2 * np.pi / 9)

ax.bar(left=left_inner,
width=2 * np.pi / 6, bottom=0, color='C0',
linewidth=2, edgecolor='w',
height=np.zeros_like(left_inner) + 5)

ax.bar(left=left_middle,
width=2 * np.pi / 12, bottom=5, color='C1',
linewidth=2, edgecolor='w',
height=np.zeros_like(left_middle) + 2)

ax.bar(left=left_outer,
width=2 * np.pi / 9, bottom=7, color='C2',
linewidth=2, edgecolor='w',
height=np.zeros_like(left_outer) + 3)

ax.set(title="Pie plot with `ax.bar` and polar coordinates")
ax.set_axis_off()
plt.show()
