\begin{abstract}
\noindent This package is based on the package |tikz| (see \cite{TtTaPGFp}) and can be used to draw various kinds of diagrams such as bar charts, doughnut charts, infographics, pie charts, ring charts, square charts, sunburst charts, waffle charts and wheel charts.

\noindent It provides several options to customize the diagrams. It is also possible to specify a plot for the shape of the chart. Furthermore a legend can be added and the table of contents can be displayed as one of these diagrams.

\noindent Other tools for creating wheel charts or pie charts can be found in \cite{MpMP}, \cite{JhcIparowcltopotPGFm}, \cite{Tumfdb}, \cite{XdPCbupp} and \cite{RSVpaaMfp}.% This is the manual for version .

\section{Usage}\label{Usage}
The package |wheelchart| can be used by putting the following in the preamble.
\begin{codeexample}[code only]
\usepackage{wheelchart}
\end{codeexample}
The package |wheelchart| loads the package |tikz| and the \tikzname{} library |calc|.

Many examples in this manual use colors which can be defined by giving |dvipsnames| as an option to |\documentclass|.
\section{The main macro}
\begin{command}{\wheelchart\opt{\oarg{options}}\marg{wheelchart data}}
This command can be placed inside a |tikzpicture| environment. It draws a wheelchart with \meta{wheelchart data}. With the initial settings, the \meta{wheelchart data} is a comma separated list in which each item corresponds to one slice of the wheelchart and consists of data separated by a |/|. The precise syntax of the \meta{wheelchart data} will be explained below. The \meta{options} can be given with the keys described in Section \ref{Keys}.
\begin{command}{\exampleforthismanual}
To simplify the creation of examples in this manual, we define the \meta{wheelchart data} below.
\begin{codeexample}[]
\gdef\exampleforthismanual{%
14/Apricot/Apricot/{A, B, C, E, K}/north east lines/0/0/Gray,
40/LimeGreen/Lime/{B, C}/grid/0/15/Black,
20/Melon/Melon/{A, C}//0.5/0/none,
16/OliveGreen/Olive/{A, B, E, K}/dots/0/0/none,
28/Peach/Peach/{A, B, C, E, K}/fivepointed stars/0/0/Lavender,
32/Plum/Plum/{A, B, C, E, K}/bricks/0/-15/none,
50/WildStrawberry/Strawberry/{B, C, E, K}//1/0/DarkOrchid%
}
\end{codeexample}%pattern crosshatch,checkerboard
\end{command}
The default wheelchart with these data is shown below.
\begin{codeexample}[width=10cm]
\begin{tikzpicture}
\wheelchart{\exampleforthismanual}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{codeexample}
\end{command}
\newpage%so that this section has its own block in the header
\section{Additional macros}
\begin{command}{\WCangle\opt{\oarg{number}}\marg{angle pos}\marg{angle shift}\marg{pos}\marg{sep}}
This command gives the angle in degrees of the point which is constructed as follows.
\begin{enumerate}
\item Consider the inner start angle and the inner end angle of slice \meta{number}. This \meta{number} is computed modulo the total number of slices. Form the convex combination of these two angles with parameter \meta{angle pos}. Then add \meta{angle shift}. Then consider the point with this angle and as radius the inner radius.
\item Consider the similar point constructed with the outer start angle, the outer end angle and the outer radius of slice \meta{number}. Then construct the straight line between those two points.
\item Consider the radius given by the command |\WCradius| with arguments \meta{number}, \meta{pos} and \meta{sep}.
\item Consider the intersection of the previous line and the arc with the previous radius. The command |\WCangle| gives the angle in degrees of this point.
\end{enumerate}
The default value for \meta{number} is |\WCcount|.

The command |\WCangle| can be used in the \meta{options} of the command |\wheelchart|. It can also be used after the command |\wheelchart|. In that case, the computed angles will correspond to the last |\wheelchart|.

The command |\WCangle| should not be used with a plot.

\end{tikzpicture}
\end{codeexample}
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCcoordinate\opt{\oarg{number}}\marg{name}}
\begin{itemize}
\item If the key |discrete| is false then this command gives the coordinate positioned at \meta{name} of slice \meta{number}. The \meta{name} can be |inner end|, |inner start|, |outer end| or |outer start|.
\item If the key |discrete| is true then this command gives the coordinate positioned at point \meta{name} of slice \meta{number}. The \meta{name} can be an integer from 1 till the number of points of slice \meta{number}.
\end{itemize}
The \meta{number} is computed modulo the total number of slices.

The default value for \meta{number} is |\WCcount|.

The command |\WCcoordinate| can be used in the \meta{options} of the command |\wheelchart|. It can also be used after the command |\wheelchart|. In that case, the coordinate will correspond to the last |\wheelchart|.
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCcount}
This macro gives the current number of the slice in the \meta{wheelchart data}.
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCcountdiscrete}
If the key |discrete| is true then this macro gives the current number of the \tikzname{} pic from the key |discrete pic|.
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCdataangle}
This macro is similar to |\WCmidangle| but also takes into account the keys |data angle pos|, |data angle shift|, |data pos| and |data sep| (with respect to the key |counterclockwise|).
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCetocthelinkedname}
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCetocthelinkednumber}

\begin{command}{\WCetocthenumber}
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCetocthenumberofpages}
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCetocthepage}
\end{command}
These macros are defined when the key |etoc level| is used.
\begin{command}{\WClegend}
If the key |legend row| is used then the resulting legend is stored in the macro |\WClegend|.
\end{command}
\begin{commandmeta}{\WClist}{name}
This macro is defined when the key |WClist|\meta{name} is used and gives the element in the \meta{list} given to the key |WClist|\meta{name} with as index |\WCcount| modulo the length of this \meta{list}. The \meta{name} is the one given to the key |WClist|\meta{name}.
\end{commandmeta}
\begin{command}{\WCmidangle}
This macro gives the angle in degrees modulo $360$ of the middle of the current slice.
\begin{codeexample}[width=10cm,preamble={\usepackage{siunitx}}]
\begin{tikzpicture}
\wheelchart[
  data angle shift=\WCvarG,
  data style={
    rotate=\WCdataangle,
    draw=Magenta,
    fill=GreenYellow,
    anchor=west,
    text=Gray
  },
  inner data=\ang{\WCmidangle},
  inner data style={
    rotate=\WCmidangle,
    font=\ttfamily
  }
]{\exampleforthismanual}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{codeexample}
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCperc}
This macro displays |\WCpercentagerounded| followed by a \unit{\percent} symbol.

If the package |siunitx| is loaded then the following code is used outside the key |arc data|. The package |siunitx| can be loaded before or after the package |wheelchart|.
\begin{codeexample}[code only]
\qty{\WCpercentagerounded}{\percent}
\end{codeexample}
If the package |siunitx| is not loaded then the following code is used outside the key |arc data|.
\begin{codeexample}[code only]
\WCpercentagerounded\,\%
\end{codeexample}
Inside the key |arc data|, the following code is used.
\begin{codeexample}[code only]
\WCpercentagerounded{\,}{\%}
\end{codeexample}
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCpercentage}
This macro gives the percentage of the current slice where the total is computed with the values of the key |value|. Note that rounding errors can occur.
\begin{codeexample}[width=10cm,preamble={\usepackage{siunitx}}]
\begin{tikzpicture}
\wheelchart[
  data=\WCvarC\\\WCperc,
  slices style={
    \WCvarB!\fpeval{4*\WCpercentage}
  }
]{\exampleforthismanual}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{codeexample}
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCpercentagerounded}
This macro displays |\WCpercentage| rounded up to the number of decimals determined by the key |perc precision|.
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCpoint\opt{\oarg{number}}\marg{angle pos}\marg{angle shift}\marg{pos}\marg{sep}}
This command gives the point where the angle is determined by |\WCangle| and the radius by |\WCradius| computed with the given arguments.

The \meta{number} is computed modulo the total number of slices.

The default value for \meta{number} is |\WCcount|.

The command |\WCpoint| can be used in the \meta{options} of the command |\wheelchart|. It can also be used after the command |\wheelchart|. In that case, the point will correspond to the last |\wheelchart|.

The command |\WCpoint| should not be used with a plot.
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCradius\opt{\oarg{number}}\marg{pos}\marg{sep}}
This command gives the convex combination with parameter \meta{pos} of the inner radius of slice \meta{number} minus \meta{sep} and the outer radius of slice \meta{number} plus \meta{sep}.

The \meta{number} is computed modulo the total number of slices.

The default value for \meta{number} is |\WCcount|.

The command |\WCradius| can be used in the \meta{options} of the command |\wheelchart|. It can also be used after the command |\wheelchart|. In that case, the computed radius will correspond to the last |\wheelchart|.

The command |\WCradius| should not be used with a plot.
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCtotalcount}
This macro gives the total number of slices.
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCtotalnum}
This macro gives the sum of all values of the key |value|.
\begin{codeexample}[width=10cm]
\begin{tikzpicture}
\wheelchart[
  data=\WCvarC: \WCvarA,
  middle={%
    \textbf{\huge Fruit}\\%
    \WCtotalcount{} species\\%
    \WCtotalnum{} pieces%
  }
]{\exampleforthismanual}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{codeexample}
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCvarA}
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCvarB}
\end{command}
\begin{command}{\WCvarC}
\end{command}
\begin{commandmetameta}{prefix}{name}
The \meta{wheelchart data} in the command |\wheelchart| is a list in which the items are separated by the value of the key |separator rows|. Each item in this list corresponds to one slice of the wheelchart and consists of data separated by the value of the key |separator columns|. With the initial settings, these individual data are interpreted as the macros |\WCvarA|, |\WCvarB|, |\WCvarC|, \dots, |\WCvarZ|, |\WCvarAA| and so on and can be accessed within the \meta{options} of the command |\wheelchart| if applicable.

The names of these macros can be specified with \meta{prefix} and \meta{name} which are determined by respectively the keys |header prefix| and |header|.

Initially, only |\WCvarA|, |\WCvarB| and |\WCvarC| are used for |value=\WCvarA|, |slices style=\WCvarB| and |data=\WCvarC|.

Other ways to specify data are by using for example a list such as an array with the package |tikz|, a list with the package |listofitems| or with the key |WClist|\meta{name}.
\begin{codeexample}[width=10cm,preamble={\usetikzlibrary{patterns}}]
\begin{tikzpicture}
\pgfkeys{
  /wheelchart,
  gap,
  header={value,color,text,vitamins,pattern,explode,data angle shift,border},
  header prefix=my,
  value=1
}
\wheelchart[
  data=,
  radius={0.5}{3},
  slices style={\mycolor!70,draw=\myborder,ultra thick,pattern=\mypattern,pattern color=\mycolor!70},
  wheel data=\mytext,
  %wheel data style={shift={(\WCmidangle:0.5)}},
  %wheel data pos=0.5
]{\exampleforthismanual}
\wheelchart[
  data=\textcolor{\mycolor}{Vitamins}\\\myvitamins,
  radius={3.1}{4},
  slices arrow={1}{0.2},
  slices style=\mycolor
]{\exampleforthismanual}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{codeexample}
\end{commandmetameta}
\section{Keys}\label{Keys}
The keys in this Section can be given as \meta{options} to the command |\wheelchart|.

If applicable, an optional non-empty \meta{range} between braces can be given to a key after the \meta{key name} except for the key |slice| where the \meta{range} is mandatory. This \meta{range} is processed with |\foreach| with the option |parse=true|. Hereafter the elements are processed with |\fp_eval:n|. If such a \meta{range} is given to a key then the options given to this key will only be applied to a slice if the number of the slice is in the \meta{range}. The \meta{range} only makes sense for a key which is processed for each slice. For example, the \meta{range} does not make sense for the key |middle|.

Furthermore, it is possible to add |{list}| after the \meta{key name}. Then a list can be given to the key. This list is processed analogously as how the key |WClist|\meta{name} works. Then the result is given to the key.

Below are some examples for the options \meta{range} and |{list}|.
\begin{itemize}
\item The following wheelchart can be obtained with the 3 possibilities below.

\begin{stylekey}{/wheelchart/arc=\marg{options} (initially \normalfont empty)}
If this key is set then an arc with the style determined by this key will be drawn following the arc or plot for a slice of the wheelchart.
\end{stylekey}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/arc around line=\marg{number} (initially 1)}
The contents of the key |arc data| can consist of multiple lines separated by |\\|. If the key |arc around text| is true then the corresponding line is determined by \meta{number}.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/arc around text=\opt{\meta{boolean}} (default true, initially false)}
If true then the arc with the style determined by the key |arc| will be split in two parts such that the gap between these two parts leaves space for the contents of line \meta{number} of the key |arc data| where \meta{number} is determined by the key |arc around line|. The space between the arc and the contents of the key |arc data| can be increased with for example |~| in |arc data=~text~|.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/arc data=\marg{text} (initially \normalfont empty)}
This key contains the \meta{text} which will be placed following the arc or plot for a slice of the wheelchart using the decoration |text along path|. This requires the \tikzname{} library |decorations.text|. The style of this decoration is given as follows. First, the option |raise=-0.5ex| is given. Then |text align| is determined by the key |arc data align|. Thereafter, the style of the key |arc data style| is added.

The \meta{text} can consist of multiple lines separated by |\\|.

Braces or multiple pairs of braces are required around some macros.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/arc data align=\mchoice{center,left,right} (initially center)}

\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/arc data dir=\marg{value} (initially 1)}
This key determines the direction of the contents of the key |arc data|. If the \meta{value} is positive then the direction is the same as the direction of the slice. If the \meta{value} is negative then the direction is reversed. The values |1| and |-1| are recommended.

When the contents of the key |arc data| is placed, the corresponding domain for the arc or plot is estimated. A warning is given when the contents of the key |arc data| did (possibly) not fit. In this case, the absolute value of the key |arc data dir| should be increased.

If an error |Dimension too large| occurs then the absolute value of the key |arc data dir| should be increased or decreased depending on the situation.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/arc data expand=\marg{expansion type} (initially n)}
The contents of the key |arc data| can consist of multiple lines separated by |\\|. This splitting is done with |\seq_set_split:Nnn| or a variant thereof depending on the \meta{expansion type} which determines the last letter in the signature. For most use cases, this \meta{expansion type} is |n|, |e| or |f|.

In the example below, it is necessary to use |arc data expand=e| and to place |\noexpand| before |\bfseries|.

\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/arc data lines shift=\marg{value} (initially 0)}
The positioning of the lines of the key |arc data| is determined by the index $k-1-\text{|arc data lines pos|}\cdot(N-1)+\text{|arc data lines shift|}$ where $N$ is the number of lines and $k\in\{1,\dots,N\}$.

\end{stylekey}
\begin{stylekey}{/wheelchart/arc first half=\marg{options} (initially \normalfont empty)}
If |arc around text| is true then the arc with the style determined by the key |arc| will be split in two parts. The style determined by the key |arc first half| will be appended to the first half of the arc.
\end{stylekey}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/arc pos=\marg{value} (initially 1)}
This key determines the position of the arc similar as the corresponding key for the key |data|.
\end{key}
\begin{stylekey}{/wheelchart/arc second half=\marg{options} (initially \normalfont empty)}
This key is similar to the key |arc first half| but will be appended to the second half of the arc.
\end{stylekey}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/arc sep=\marg{value} (initially 1ex/1cm)}
This key determines the position of the arc similar as the corresponding key for the key |data|. Note that the actual distance is given by |0.5ex/1cm| plus |arc sep| to match the option |raise=-0.5ex| given to the decoration for the key |arc data|.

This key contains the \meta{text} which will be placed below the wheelchart. The \meta{text} is placed in a node. The $x$ coordinate of this node is the $x$ coordinate of the center of the wheelchart, which is defined by the key |at|. In general, this is \emph{not} the same as the $x$ coordinate of the center of the |local bounding box| around the wheelchart. The $y$ coordinate of this node is at a value determined by the key |caption sep| below the south of the |local bounding box| around the wheelchart. The style of this node is given as follows. First, the options |anchor=north,align=center| are given. Thereafter, the style of the key |caption style| is added.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/caption left=\marg{text} (initially \normalfont empty)}
This key contains the \meta{text} which will be placed below left of the wheelchart. The \meta{text} is placed in a node.

\begin{stylekey}{/wheelchart/contour=\marg{options} (initially \normalfont empty)}
If this key is set then a contour with the style determined by this key will be drawn around the wheelchart. This requires a fixed inner and outer radius for all slices. This key does \emph{not} apply if a plot is used.
\end{stylekey}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/counterclockwise=\opt{\meta{boolean}} (default true, initially false)}
If true, the wheelchart will be drawn counterclockwise instead of clockwise.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/data=\marg{text} (initially \textbackslash WCvarC)}
This key contains the \meta{text} which will be placed at each slice of the wheelchart. This can be suppressed by using |data={}|. The \meta{text} is placed in a node. The style of this node is given as follows. First, the anchor is set following Table \ref{tableanchorofthekeydatainthecasethatlinesextequaltozero} and Table \ref{tableanchorofthekeydatainthecasethatlinesextdifferentfromzero}. Then the option |align=left| is added. Thereafter, the style of the key |data style| is added.

\begin{key}{/wheelchart/data sep=\marg{value} (initially 0.2)}
If no plot is used then the position of the contents of the key |data| is determined as described for the commands |\WCangle| and |\WCradius|.

If a plot is used then the position of the contents of the key |data| is determined as follows.
\begin{enumerate}
\item The inner plot is evaluated in the point with as angle the convex combination with as parameter the key |data angle pos| of the inner start angle and the inner end angle, added with the key |data angle shift| in degrees (taking into account the key |counterclockwise|) and as radius the inner radius minus the key |data sep|.
\item The outer plot is evaluated in the similar point but using the outer start angle, the outer end angle and the outer radius plus the key |data sep|.
\item If $\text{|lines|}\neq 0$ then the values of the keys |lines sep| and |lines| are added to the radii above, in addition to the key |data sep|.
\item The contents of the key |data| is placed at the convex combination with as parameter the key |data pos| of the previous two points.

\begin{key}{/wheelchart/discrete=\opt{\meta{boolean}} (default true, initially false)}
If true then \tikzname{} pics are placed with the \meta{code} determined by the key |discrete pic|. The number of pics is determined by the key |value|. It is required to set the key |discrete space at borders|.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/discrete factor=\marg{value} (initially 1)}
The algorithm to place the \tikzname{} pics depends on the \meta{value}. The value |1| is recommended.

\begin{key}{/wheelchart/discrete space at borders=\opt{\meta{boolean}} (default true)}
This key determines whether space is left at the begin and end where the \tikzname{} pics are placed. For example, suppose that $3$ \tikzname{} pics are placed at positions between $0$ and $1$. If |discrete space at borders| is true then these are placed at the positions $\frac{1}{6}$, $\frac{3}{6}$ and $\frac{5}{6}$. If |discrete space at borders| is false then these are placed at the positions $0$, $\frac{1}{2}$ and $1$.

This key deliberately has no initial value in order to force awareness of the consequences of the settings of this key. In the example below, the cyan \tikzname{} pics are aligned if |discrete space at borders| is false while this is \emph{not} the case if |discrete space at borders| is true.
\begin{codeexample}[]

\begin{key}{/wheelchart/domain=\marg{start}:\marg{end}}
This key sets |counterclockwise|, |start angle| to \meta{start} and |total angle| to $\text{\meta{end}}-\text{\meta{start}}$.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/etoc code=\marg{code} (initially \textbackslash tableofcontents)}
The \meta{code} will be executed to build the \meta{wheelchart data} if the key |etoc level| is used.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/etoc count total pages=\marg{number} (initially 0)}
If the key |etoc level| is used then the number of pages of the last section depends on \meta{number} which can for example represent the total number of pages in the document or the number of pages before the start of the Appendix or the Index. For example, |etoc count total pages=\totalpages| can be used. To provide the command |\totalpages|, this requires |\usepackage[page]{totalcount}|, which should normally be loaded \emph{before} the package |wheelchart| to give a correct result.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/etoc level=\marg{level}}
If this key is used then the \meta{wheelchart data} of the command |\wheelchart| can be left empty and is defined to match the sections of the level defined by \meta{level}. Here, |\WCetocthelinkedname| corresponds to |\etocthelinkedname|, |\WCetocthelinkednumber| to |\etocthelinkednumber|, |\WCetocthelinkedpage| to |\etocthelinkedpage|, |\WCetocthename| to |\etocthename|, |\WCetocthenumber| to |\etocthenumber| and |\WCetocthepage| to |\etocthepage|. The package |etoc| is required to provide these commands. Furthermore, |\WCetocthenumberofpages| corresponds to the number of pages of the current section. For the last section, this depends on the value of the key |etoc count total pages|.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/etoc name=\marg{name} (initially \normalfont empty)}
The resulting \meta{wheelchart data} from the key |etoc level| is stored globally and can be reused later with the key |etoc use name|.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/etoc use name=\marg{name}}
If this key is used then the \meta{wheelchart data} is reused from where |etoc name| has the same \meta{name}.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/expand list=\mchoice{false,once,true} (initially once)}
\begin{description}
\item[\texttt{false}] In this case, the \meta{wheelchart data} of the command |\wheelchart| will not be expanded.
\item[\texttt{once}] In this case, the \meta{wheelchart data} of the command |\wheelchart| will be expanded once.
\item[\texttt{true}] In this case, the \meta{wheelchart data} of the command |\wheelchart| will be fully expanded.
\end{description}
The following example illustrates the difference between the possible values of the key |expand list|.
\begin{codeexample}[width=10cm]
\begin{tikzpicture}
\def\WClistA{a,A}
\def\WClistB{b,B}
\def\WCdata{\WClistA,\WClistB}

\begin{key}{/wheelchart/expand list items=\mchoice{false,once,true} (initially false)}
This key is similar to the key |expand list| but applies to the items in the \meta{wheelchart data} of the command |\wheelchart| which correspond to a slice of the wheelchart.
\begin{codeexample}[width=10cm]
\def\WClistA{a/b}%

  ]{\WCdata}%
}
\end{codeexample}
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/explode=\marg{value} (default 0.2, initially 0)}
This key will shift the slices of the wheelchart with \meta{value} with respect to the center of the wheelchart.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/for loop end=\marg{code} (initially \normalfont empty)}
The slices of the wheelchart, the wheel lines determined by the key |wheel lines| and the different kinds of data are placed in for loops. If the key |for loop end| is set then the \meta{code} given to this key will be executed at the end of the body of these for loops.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/for loop start=\marg{code} (initially \normalfont empty)}
This key is similar to the key |for loop end| but the \meta{code} given to this key will be executed at the start of the body of the for loops.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/gap=\marg{value} (default 0.05, initially 0)}
The \meta{value} of this key defines half the distance between two slices of the wheelchart. This key does \emph{not} apply if a plot is used.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/gap max angle=\marg{angle} (initially 180)}
If the value of the key |gap| is too large then a slice can partly disappear such as for example below when |gap max angle| is \ang{155}. The \meta{angle} of the key |gap max angle| determines the inner arc of the slice as illustrated in the examples below.
\begin{codeexample}[preamble={\usepackage{siunitx}}]
\begin{tikzpicture}
\foreach\gapmaxangle [count=\n] in {90,120,155}{

  \end{scope}
}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{codeexample}
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/gap polar=\marg{value} (default 1, initially 0)}
The \meta{value} of this key defines half the polar gap in degrees between two slices of the wheelchart.

Note the difference between the keys |explode|, |gap| and |gap polar|. This is illustrated in the examples below.
\begin{codeexample}[width=10cm]

\begin{key}{/wheelchart/gap radius=\marg{value} (default 0.05, initially 0)}
The \meta{value} of this key will be added to |inner radius| and substracted from |outer radius|.

\draw[Gray] (0,0) circle[radius=1.9];
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{codeexample}
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/header=\marg{list}}
The items in the \meta{list} determine the names in the macros |\|\meta{prefix}\meta{name}.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/header prefix=\marg{prefix} (initially WC)}
The \meta{prefix} is used in the macros |\|\meta{prefix}\meta{name}.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/inner data=\marg{text} (initially \normalfont empty)}
This key contains the \meta{text} which will be placed at each slice of the wheelchart. The \meta{text} is placed in a node. The style of this node is given as follows. First, the option |align=left| is given. Thereafter, the style of the key |inner data style| is added.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/inner data angle pos=\marg{value} (initially 0.5)}
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/inner data angle shift=\marg{angle} (initially 0)}
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/inner data pos=\marg{value} (initially 0)}
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/inner data sep=\marg{value} (initially 0.2)}
These keys determine the position of the contents of the key |inner data| similar as the corresponding keys for the key |data|. No lines are drawn for the inner data.
\end{key}
\begin{stylekey}{/wheelchart/inner data style=\marg{options} (initially \normalfont empty)}
This key accepts a list of keys which will be applied to the node where the contents of the key |inner data| is placed.
\end{stylekey}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/inner plot=\marg{code}}
The \meta{code} is a coordinate definition which will be used for the inner parts of the slices of the wheelchart. In the \meta{code}, |#1| and |#2| can be used where |#1| corresponds to the angle and |#2| corresponds to the radius. For example, a circle can be obtained with |inner plot={{#1}:{#2}}|.
\end{key}
\begin{stylekey}{/wheelchart/inner plot style=\marg{options} (initially \normalfont empty)}
This key accepts a list of keys which will be applied to the plot determined by the key |inner plot|.
\end{stylekey}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/inner radius=\marg{value} (initially 2)}
The \meta{value} of this key defines the inner radius of the wheelchart.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/legend=\marg{code} (initially \normalfont empty)}
The \meta{code} given to this key will be executed at the end of the command |\wheelchart|.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/legend columns=\marg{number} (initially 1)}
If the key |legend row| is used then the maximum number of times that the \meta{code} given to the key |legend row| appears on one row is determined by \meta{number}. The environment (for example |tabular|, |tabularx| from the package |tabularx|, |tabulary| from the package |tabulary| or |tblr| from the package |tabularray|) which contains the macro |\WClegend| needs to have a suitable column specification according with \meta{number} and the key |legend row|.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/legend entry=\marg{code} (initially \normalfont empty)}
The \meta{code} given to this key will be executed for each slice of the wheelchart.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/legend only=\opt{\meta{boolean}} (default true, initially false)}
If true then only the legend is constructed. This does \emph{not} apply to the key |legend entry|.

In this case it is \emph{not} necessary to place the command |\wheelchart| in a |tikzpicture| environment.
\begin{codeexample}[width=10cm,preamble={\usepackage{tikzlings}}]
\wheelchart[
  header={animal,accessory},
  legend columns=3,
  legend only,
  legend row={\tikz[scale=0.3]{

    \multicolumn{6}{c}{%

  panda icecream;
  penguin milkshake;
  snowman santa;
  squirrel shovel%
}
\end{codeexample}
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/legend row=\marg{code}}
If this key is set then a legend consisting of rows for an environment such as |tabular|, |tabularx| from the package |tabularx|, |tabulary| from the package |tabulary| or |tblr| from the package |tabularray| is constructed using the \meta{code} for each slice of the wheelchart.

If a |tblr| environment from the package |tabularray| is used then the option |expand=\WClegend| needs to be given to this |tblr| environment and |\UseTblrLibrary{counter}| is required.

The maximum number of times that the \meta{code} appears on one row is determined by the key |legend columns|.

The code automatically inserts |&| and |\\| after the \meta{code} if necessary.

The result is stored in the macro |\WClegend|.
\begin{codeexample}[preamble={\usepackage{tabularray}
\UseTblrLibrary{counter,siunitx}}]

\begin{key}{/wheelchart/lines=\marg{value} (default 1, initially 0)}
The \meta{value} is used in the positioning of the contents of the key |data|. The end point of the lines is determined similarly but without the key |data sep|.
\begin{codeexample}[width=10cm,preamble={\usepackage{siunitx}}]

\begin{key}{/wheelchart/lines angle pos=\marg{value} (initially 0.5)}
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/lines angle shift=\marg{angle} (initially 0)}
These keys are similar to the corresponding keys for |data| but determine the start point of the lines.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/lines ext=\marg{value} (default 0.5, initially 0)}
If the \meta{value} of this key is nonzero and |lines ext fixed| is false then the lines between the wheelchart and the contents of the key |data| will be extended horizontally with a length defined by \meta{value}.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/lines ext bottom dir=\mchoice{left,right} (initially right)}
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/lines ext dir=\mchoice{left,right}}
The default direction in which the lines between the wheelchart and the contents of the key |data| will be extended horizontally if $\text{|lines ext|}\neq 0$ is determined by Table \ref{tablelinesextdir} and illustrated in the following example. This can be overruled by giving an explicit value to this key. Note that rounding errors can occur in the computation of the angle which is used to determine the default direction according to Table \ref{tablelinesextdir}.

\begin{stylekey}{/wheelchart/outer plot style=\marg{options} (initially \normalfont empty)}
This key accepts a list of keys which will be applied to the plot determined by the key |outer plot|.
\end{stylekey}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/outer radius=\marg{value} (initially 3)}
The \meta{value} of this key defines the outer radius of the wheelchart.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/perc precision=\marg{number} (initially 0)}
This key defines the number of decimals up to which the percentage in the macros |\WCperc| and |\WCpercentagerounded| is rounded. The rounding is performed with |l3fp|. With the initial setting, for example \num{49.5} and \num{50.5} are both rounded to 50. With |perc precision={0,1}|, \num{49.5} is rounded to 50 and \num{50.5} to 51.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/pie=\opt{\meta{boolean}} (default true, initially false)}
If true, the inner radius of the wheelchart is set to |0|.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/plot=\marg{code}}
This key sets |inner plot| and |outer plot|.

Since the \emph{let operation} from the \tikzname{} library |calc| is used, it is not possible to use the variable names |\n|, |\p|, |\x| and |\y| inside the \meta{code}.

Note that positions depend on the |domain| and \emph{not} on the length of the |plot|. For example below, |data angle pos=0.5|. The corresponding value of the |domain| is $1$ which gives the $x$ coordinate $1$ which is \emph{not} in the middle of the plot. Whereas |wheel data angle pos=sqrt(2)/2|. The corresponding value of the |domain| is $\sqrt{2}$ which gives the $x$ coordinate $2$ which is in the middle of the plot.

\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/slices=\marg{path}}
If this key is set then the shape of the slices of the wheelchart is defined by \meta{path}.

In the following example, a |;| is placed at the beginning of the argument for the key |slices| because there is no path to be filled. Thereafter, a node is placed still within the argument for the key |slices|.

\begin{key}{/wheelchart/slices angle pos=\marg{value} (initially 0.5)}
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/slices angle shift=\marg{angle} (initially 0)}
These keys determine the position of the slices if the key |slices| is used similar as the corresponding keys for the key |data|.
\end{key}
Below we list some keys to modify the shape of the slices. These keys only affect the shape of the slices and \emph{not} the computation of the inner and outer sides. In particular, these keys do \emph{not} affect the placement of |arc|, |arc data|, |data|, |inner data|, |lines|, |wheel data| and |wheel lines|. If this placement should be changed then the keys |inner plot| and |outer plot| can be used.
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/slices arc=\marg{value 1}\marg{value 2}}
This key sets |slices end arc| and |slices start arc| but uses the opposite of \meta{value 1} for |slices start arc|.

\begin{key}{/wheelchart/slices arc match=\marg{arg 1}\marg{num 1}\marg{num 2}\marg{num 3}\marg{arg 2}\marg{arg 3}\marg{arg 4}}
This key modifies the shape of the slices according to the $7$ arguments.

Here, \meta{arg 1} must be |end|, |inner|, |outer| or |start| and \meta{arg 2}, \meta{arg 3} and \meta{arg 4} must be |inner end|, |inner start|, |outer end| or |outer start|. For example, the key |slices arc inner end| sets |slices arc match={inner}{1}{-1}{1}{inner end}{inner start}{outer end}|.

\begin{key}{/wheelchart/slices end=\marg{path}}
This key determines the end of the slice. Initially, this is a line segment from the outer end to the inner end of the slice.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/slices end arc=\marg{value 1}\marg{value 2}}
This key determines the end of the slice.

The effect of \meta{value 1} and \meta{value 2} is shown in the figure and the table below.

If $\text{\meta{value 1}}>0$ then the arc points outwards the slice. If $\text{\meta{value 1}}<0$ then the arc points inwards the slice. Here, outwards and inwards are relative to the orientation of the four-sided polygon formed by the points whose coordinates are determined by the inner and outer radius of the first slice and the start angle and the angle at the inverse of the key |samples| between the start angle and the end angle of the first slice. If the start angle and the end angle of the first slice are equal then the end angle of the last slice is used instead. If this test is inconclusive then the orientation is set according to the key |counterclockwise|.

If $\text{\meta{value 1}}=0$ then a line segment is drawn.

If \meta{value 1} and \meta{value 2} are negative then an arc is drawn which behaves the same as an arc with $\text{\meta{value 2}}=0$ and such that its radius matches the radius of the arc corresponding to setting \meta{value 1} to its opposite. This is illustrated in the table below.

\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/title left=\marg{text} (initially \normalfont empty)}

The $y$ coordinate of the node where the contents of the key |title| is placed is at \meta{value} above the north of the |local bounding box| around the wheelchart.
\end{key}
\begin{stylekey}{/wheelchart/title style=\marg{options} (initially \normalfont empty)}
This key accepts a list of keys which will be applied to the node where the contents of the key |title| is placed.
\end{stylekey}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/total angle=\marg{angle} (initially 360)}
This key defines the total \meta{angle} in degrees of the wheelchart.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/total count=\marg{number}}
If this key is set then the number of slices of the wheelchart is determined by \meta{number}. Moreover, |\WCvarA| is defined as |1| and |\WCvarB| and |\WCvarC| are defined to be empty.
\begin{codeexample}[width=10cm,preamble={\usepackage{siunitx}}]

\begin{key}{/wheelchart/triangle proportional area=\marg{width}\marg{height}}
This key configures the plot such that a triangular shape is obtained. The value is proportional to the area and \emph{not} to the height. Moreover, it sets |samples=2| and |wheel data pos=0.5|. The point $(0,0)$ is at the top. This can be shifted with the key |at|.
\begin{codeexample}[width=10cm]
\begin{tikzpicture}
\wheelchart[

\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/value=\marg{value} (initially \textbackslash WCvarA)}
This key defines the \meta{value} which corresponds to the size of each slice of the wheelchart.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/WClist\meta{name}=\marg{list}}
This key locally defines a macro |\WClist|\meta{name} which gives the element in the \meta{list} with as index |\WCcount| modulo the length of the \meta{list}. The \meta{list} is expanded once and processed using a |clist|. In particular, blank arguments are ignored. An empty argument in the \meta{list} can be obtained with |{}|. Items containing a |,| can be obtained by surrounding it with |{| and |}| such as |WClistA={{a,b},{c,d}}|.

If |\def\mylist{a,b,c}| and |WClistA=\mylist| then |\WClistA| gives |a,b,c| for each slice. On the other hand, if |WClistA/.expanded=\mylist| then |\WClistA| alternates between |a|, |b| and |c|.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/wheel data=\marg{text} (initially \normalfont empty)}
This key contains the \meta{text} which will be placed on top of each slice of the wheelchart. The \meta{text} is placed in a node. The style of this node is given as follows. First, the option |align=left| is given. Thereafter, the style of the key |wheel data style| is added.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/wheel data angle pos=\marg{value} (initially 0.5)}
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/wheel data angle shift=\marg{angle} (initially 0)}
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/wheel data pos=\marg{value} (initially 0.66)}
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/wheelchart/wheel data sep=\marg{value} (initially 0)}
These keys determine the position of the contents of the key |wheel data| similar as the corresponding keys for the key |data|.
\end{key}
\begin{stylekey}{/wheelchart/wheel data style=\marg{options} (initially \normalfont empty)}
This key accepts a list of keys which will be applied to the node where the contents of the key |wheel data| is placed.
\end{stylekey}
\begin{stylekey}{/wheelchart/wheel lines=\marg{options} (initially \normalfont empty)}
If this key is set then lines with the style determined by this key will be drawn inside the slices of the wheelchart. The number of these lines depends on the value of the key |value|.

Below is the example from \cite[Subsection 7.6]{TtTaPGFp} recreated with the package |wheelchart|.

\begin{key}{/wheelchart/xbar=\marg{width}\marg{height}}
This key sets |domain=0:|\marg{width}, |plot={{#1},{#2}}|, |radius={0}|\marg{height}, |samples=2| and also |wheel data pos=0.5|. The point $(0,0)$ is below left of the bar. This can be shifted with the key |at|. Note that since this key sets in particular the outer parts of the slices, keys such as |slices outer arc| must be placed \emph{after} the key |xbar| to be applied.

\section{Version history}
\begin{itemize}
\item[] \textbf{Version 1.0 (2022/09/11)} First version.
\item[] \textbf{Version 2.0 (2023/12/03)}
\begin{itemize}
\item The package now mainly uses \LaTeX3 syntax.
\item Improved the definition of the path of the slices.
\item Many internal computations are now performed with |\fp_eval:n| instead of |pgfmath| for higher accuracy and to allow larger values. This applies in particular to the computation of |\WCpercentage|, |\WCpercentagerounded| and |\WCtotalnum|. Hence |\WCpercentagerounded| can be parsed by |siunitx| since its definition does not involve |\pgfmathprintnumberto| anymore and |\WCtotalnum| does not end with |.0| if it is an integer.
\item The number of data which can be given to each slice of the wheelchart and accessed by |\WCvarA| and so on is not limited to $26$ anymore.
\item \begin{flushleft}Added the macros |\WCcountdiscrete|, |\WCetocthelinkedname|, |\WCetocthelinkednumber|, |\WCetocthelinkedpage|, |\WCetocthename|, |\WCetocthenumber|, |\WCetocthenumberofpages|, |\WCetocthepage|, |\WClegend|, |\WClist|\meta{name} and |\|\meta{prefix}\meta{name}.\end{flushleft}
\item \begin{flushleft}Added the keys |after slices|, |arc|, |arc around text|, |arc data|, |arc data align|, |arc data angle pos|, |arc data angle shift|, |arc data dir|, |arc data pos|, |arc data sep|, |arc data style|, |arc first half|, |arc pos|, |arc second half|, |arc sep|, |before slices|, |caption left sep|, |caption sep|, |data angle pos|, |data pos|, |discrete|, |discrete factor|, |discrete partitioning|, |discrete pic|, |discrete sort|, |discrete space at borders|, |domain|, |etoc code|, |etoc count total pages|, |etoc level|, |etoc name|, |etoc use name|, |expand list items|, |for loop end|, |for loop start|, |gap max angle|, |gap radius|, |header|, |header prefix|, |inner data angle pos|, |inner data angle shift|, |inner data pos|, |inner plot|, |inner plot style|, |legend columns|, |legend only|, |legend row|, |lines angle pos|, |lines angle shift|, |lines ext dir|, |lines ext fixed left|, |lines ext fixed right|, |lines pos|, |outer plot|, |outer plot style|, |parse|, |plot|, |plot style|, |samples|, |separator columns|, |separator rows|, |slices angle pos|, |slices angle shift|, |slices arc inner end|, |slices arc inner end start|, |slices arc inner start|, |slices arc inner start end|, |slices arc match|, |slices arc outer end|, |slices arc outer end start|, |slices arc outer start|, |slices arc outer start end|, |slices end to|, |slices inner angle reduce|, |slices inner angle shift|, |slices inner arc|, |slices inner arc tangent|, |slices inner arrow|, |slices inner end angle shift|, |slices inner start angle shift|, |slices inner to|, |slices outer angle reduce|, |slices outer angle shift|, |slices outer arc|, |slices outer arc tangent|, |slices outer arrow|, |slices outer end angle shift|, |slices outer start angle shift|, |slices outer to|, |slices pos|, |slices scope|, |slices sep|, |slices start to|, |slices to|, |slice|\marg{range}, |title left sep|, |title sep|, |triangle proportional area|, |triangle proportional height|, |WClist|\meta{name}, |wheel data angle pos|, |wheel data angle shift|, |wheel data sep|, |xbar| and |ybar|.\end{flushleft}
\item Added the possibility to give a \meta{range} to the keys such that the options given to the key will only be applied to a slice if the number of the slice is in the \meta{range}.
\item Added the possibility to give a \meta{list} to the keys.
\item The \meta{wheelchart data} are not processed with |\foreach| anymore but instead with one of |\seq_set_split:Nee|, |\seq_set_split:Nen| or |\seq_set_split:Neo| depending on the keys |expand list| and |expand list items|. Thus syntax which is specific to how |\foreach| processes a list does not work anymore, such as the dots notation and the repeating of the last entry if some entry in the list has fewer entries than required.
\item If the key |start angle| is set after the key |start half| then v1.0 preserved the setting of the key |start half|. In v2.0, the setting is determined by the key which is set last.
\item In v1.0, the value of the key |data angle shift| was also applied to |inner data|, |lines| and |wheel data|. In v2.0, this is not the case anymore. Instead there are now separate keys |inner data angle shift|, |lines angle shift|, |wheel data angle shift| and also |arc data angle shift|.
\item In v1.0, the key |data sep| was not applied if the key |lines ext| was used. In v2.0, this is not the case anymore.
\item In v1.0, a negative value for the key |lines| was not applied. In v2.0, this is not the case anymore.
\end{itemize}
\item[] \textbf{Version 3.0 (2024/03/08)}
\begin{itemize}
\item Improved the parametrization of the slices in the case that no plot is used. In particular, the |arc| and |arc data| are placed with an arc if no plot is used whereas in v2.0, these were placed with a plot even if no plot was used. Also, the computation of |\WCdataangle| and |\WCmidangle| is more precise than in v2.0.
\item Optimized the code. The compilation is faster than in v2.0.
\item Added the commands |\WCangle|, |\WCcoordinate|, |\WCpoint| and |\WCradius|.
\item \begin{flushleft}Added the keys |arc around line|, |arc data expand|, |arc data line sep factor|, |slices Arrow|, |slices end|, |slices inner|, |slices outer| and |slices start|.\end{flushleft}
\item Changed the definition of |\WCperc| in the key |arc data| so that |\WCperc| follows the arc or plot.
\item Added the possibility that the contents of the key |arc data| consists of multiple lines separated by |\\|.
\item Reduced the functionality of the keys |contour| and |middle fill| to require a fixed inner and outer radius for all slices.
\item Removed the key |parse|. The values of applicable keys are parsed with |\pgfmathparse|. If a value should be parsed with |l3fp| then |\fpeval| can be used.
\item In v2.0, the key |arc data angle shift| was not taken into account for the key |arc| in combination with the key |arc around text|. This is fixed in v3.0.
\item In v2.0, the number of items for each slice in the \meta{wheelchart data} which can be accessed with the macros |\WCvarA| and so on was determined by the number of items for the last slice. For example, |data{1}=\WCvarD| in combination with the \meta{wheelchart data} |1/black/A/a,2/gray/B| was not possible with v2.0. This is not a limitation anymore with v3.0.
\end{itemize}
\item[] \textbf{Version 4.0 (2024/07/28)}
\begin{itemize}
\item Added the keys |arc data lines pos| and |arc data lines shift|.
\item Solved an incompatibility if |\\| is used in a key such as |data| inside an environment such as |center|.
\end{itemize}
\end{itemize}
