A radial bar chart, also known as a circular bar chart or a radial column chart, is a type of data visualization that displays data as a series of bars arranged in a circular or radial pattern. Each bar represents a different category or variable, and the length of the bar corresponds to the value of the data for that category or variable.

Radial bar charts are similar to regular bar charts, but the bars are arranged in a circular pattern around a central point, rather than being displayed horizontally or vertically. This can make the chart more visually appealing and easier to read, particularly when there are many categories or variables being displayed.

Radial bar charts are often used to display data as percentages, where the total value of the data is 100%. They are commonly used to show the relative sizes of different categories within the data, or to compare the sizes of different sub-categories within each category.
