Polar bar charts

Binder  Script  Notebook

Summary: This example shows how to create polar bar charts in F#.

let's first create some data for the purpose of creating example charts:

open Plotly.NET 
  
let r   = [77.5; 72.5; 70.0; 45.0; 22.5; 42.5; 40.0; 62.5]
let r2  = [57.5; 50.0; 45.0; 35.0; 20.0; 22.5; 37.5; 55.0]
let r3  = [40.0; 30.0; 30.0; 35.0; 7.5; 7.5; 32.5; 40.0]
let r4  = [20.0; 7.5; 15.0; 22.5; 2.5; 2.5; 12.5; 22.5]

let t = ["North"; "N-E"; "East"; "S-E"; "South"; "S-W"; "West"; "N-W"]

Polar bar charts plot data on a radial axis and a categorical angular axis.

A common use case is the windrose chart.

A wind rose is a graphic tool used by meteorologists to give a succinct view of how wind speed and direction are typically distributed at a particular location.

open Plotly.NET.LayoutObjects

let windrose1 =

    [
        Chart.BarPolar (r , t, Name="11-14 m/s",  MarkerPatternShape = StyleParam.PatternShape.Checked)
        Chart.BarPolar (r2, t, Name="8-11 m/s" ,  MarkerPatternShape = StyleParam.PatternShape.DiagonalChecked)
        Chart.BarPolar (r3, t, Name="5-8 m/s"  ,  MarkerPatternShape = StyleParam.PatternShape.VerticalLines)
        Chart.BarPolar (r4, t, Name="< 5 m/s"  ,  MarkerPatternShape = StyleParam.PatternShape.HorizontalLines)
    ]
    |> Chart.combine
    |> Chart.withAngularAxis(
        AngularAxis.init(
            CategoryOrder = StyleParam.CategoryOrder.Array,
            CategoryArray = (["East"; "N-E"; "North"; "N-W"; "West"; "S-W"; "South"; "S-E";]) // set the order of the categorical axis
        )
    )

<summary> Specifies the ordering logic for the case of categorical variables. By default, plotly uses "trace", which specifies the order that is present in the data supplied. Set `categoryorder` to "category ascending" or "category descending" if order should be determined by the alphanumerical order of the category names. Set `categoryorder` to "array" to derive the ordering from the attribute `categoryarray`. If a category is not found in the `categoryarray` array, the sorting behavior for that attribute will be identical to the "trace" mode. The unspecified categories will follow the categories in `categoryarray`. Set `categoryorder` to "total ascending" or "total descending" if order should be determined by the numerical order of the values. Similarly, the order can be determined by the min, max, sum, mean or median of all the values. </summary>
