Distribution of data in the circle
Lets say I have elements (E1, E2, ... ,En
) that have individual values which varies in [1; 100]
. I have a circle (see figure below) and each two circle represent range of data.
E
in this circle. Figure below depicts distribution of some elements ofE
in the circle, where for example E1=10, E2=35,...,E6=100, E7=91
. Are there any ready libraries in PHP or any plugins in jQuery or any ready solution?
I need to implement this problem in my web application using HTML+CSS+jQuery (don't offer solution with flash technologies, please).
Note: It is like creating charts in MS Excel. For example in MS Excel there is a chart type called Radar which more or less implements this problem, but in my case I have circles instead of polygon and I have only limited range of [1;100]
.
Edit
I have forgotten to mention that in this figure object element which is in the center is the object based on which we are showing distribution. If element m开发者_运维百科atches object with more percentage so close it to the object and vice versa.
This is incomplete, see the GD manual on how to add text, etc.
<?php
$size = 501; //odd
$img = imagecreatetruecolor($size, $size);
$center = array((int) ($size/2), (int) ($size/2));
$colors['white'] = imagecolorallocate($img, 255, 255, 255);
$colors['black'] = imagecolorallocate($img, 0, 0, 0);
$colors['blue'] = imagecolorallocate($img, 0, 0, 255);
imagefill($img, 0, 0, $colors['white']);
$valid_rad = array((int) (($center[0] - 1) * .2), (int) (($center[0] - 1) * .9));
function radius_for($percentage, $valid_rad) {
return $valid_rad[1] - ($valid_rad[1] - $valid_rad[0]) *
($percentage/100);
}
foreach (array(0,25,50,75,100) as $perc) {
$radius = radius_for($perc, $valid_rad);
imagearc($img, $center[0], $center[1], $radius*2, $radius*2,
0, 360, $colors['black']);
}
foreach (array(100,85,70,36,23,2) as $perc) {
$radius = radius_for($perc, $valid_rad);
$angle = pi() * 1.25 + ((rand(0,100) - 50) / 50) * .5;
$x = (int) ($radius * cos($angle)) + $center[0];
$y = (int) ($radius * sin($angle)) + $center[1];
imagefilledellipse($img, $x, $y , 20, 20, $colors['blue']);
}
header("Content-type: image/png");
imagepng($img);
This gives a picture like this:
I don't know of any pre-made graphs like that. However you may be able to replicate it with a scatter plot with a custom background. Here are some jquery ones. You'd have to do the math to create the x,y coordinates with the appropriate distance from the center point but the chart plug-in should take care of the rest.
