How do I use matplotlib autopct?

Question

I\'d like to create a matplotlib pie chart which has the value of each wedge written on top of the wedge.

The documentation suggests I should use autopct

Answer 1

Using lambda and format may be better

import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import seaborn as sns

path = r"C:\Users\byqpz\Desktop\DATA\raw\tips.csv"

df = pd.read_csv(path, engine='python', encoding='utf_8_sig')

days = df.groupby('day').size()

sns.set()
days.plot(kind='pie', title='Number of parties on different days', figsize=[8,8],
          autopct=lambda p: '{:.2f}%({:.0f})'.format(p,(p/100)*days.sum()))
plt.show()
