# 🧇 waffle

Create Waffle Chart Visualizations

## Description

Square pie charts (a.k.a. waffle charts) can be used to communicate
parts of a whole for categorical quantities. To emulate the percentage
view of a pie chart, a 10x10 grid should be used with each square
representing 1% of the total. Modern uses of waffle charts do not
necessarily adhere to this rule and can be created with a grid of any
rectangular shape. Best practices suggest keeping the number of
categories small, just as should be done when creating pie charts. Tools
are provided to create waffle charts as well as stitch them together,
and to use glyphs for making isotype pictograms.

It uses ggplot2 and returns a ggplot2 object.

## What’s Inside the Tin

The following functions are implemented:

- `waffle`: Make waffle (square pie) charts

- `draw_key_pictogram`: Legend builder for pictograms

- `fa_grep`: Search Font Awesome glyph names for a pattern

- `fa_list`: List all Font Awesome glyphs

- `fa5_brand`: Font Awesome 5 Brand

- `fa5_solid`: Font Awesome 5 Solid

- `geom_pictogram`: Pictogram Geom

- `geom_waffle`: Waffle (Square pie chart) Geom

- `install_fa_fonts`: Install Font Awesome 5 Fonts

- `iron`: Veritical, left-aligned layout for waffle plots

- `scale_label_pictogram`: Used with geom_pictogram() to map Font
Awesome fonts to labels

- `theme_enhance_waffle`: Waffle chart theme cruft remover that can be
used with any other theme

## Installation

``` r
install.packages("waffle") # NOTE: CRAN version is 0.7.0
# or
remotes::install_github("hrbrmstr/waffle")
```

NOTE: To use the ‘remotes’ install options you will need to have the
[{remotes} package](https://github.com/r-lib/remotes) installed.

## Usage

``` r

library(magrittr)
library(hrbrthemes)
library(ggplot2)
library(dplyr)
library(waffle)

# current verison
packageVersion("waffle")

### Some new bits up first

``` r
data.frame(
parts = factor(rep(month.abb[1:3], 3), levels=month.abb[1:3]),
vals = c(10, 20, 30, 6, 14, 40, 30, 20, 10),
col = rep(c("navy", "black", "maroon"), 3),
fct = c(
rep("Thing 1", 3),
rep("Thing 2", 3),
rep("Thing 3", 3)
)
) -> xdf

xdf %>%
count(parts, wt = vals) %>%
ggplot(
aes(fill = parts, values = n)
) +
geom_waffle(
n_rows = 20,
size = 0.33,
colour = "white",
flip = TRUE
) +
scale_fill_manual(
name = NULL,
values = c("#a40000", "#c68958", "#ae6056"),
labels = c("Fruit", "Sammich", "Pizza")
) +
coord_equal() +
theme_ipsum_rc(grid="") +
theme_enhance_waffle()
```

``` r

theme(
legend.key.height = unit(2.25, "line"),
legend.text = element_text(size = 10, hjust = 0, vjust = 0.75)
)
```

``` r

xdf %>%
count(parts, wt = vals) %>%
ggplot(
aes(label = parts, values = n)
) +
geom_pictogram(
n_rows = 20,
size = 6,

### Geoms!

``` r
library(hrbrthemes)
library(waffle)
library(tidyverse)

tibble(
parts = factor(rep(month.abb[1:3], 3), levels=month.abb[1:3]),
values = c(10, 20, 30, 6, 14, 40, 30, 20, 10),
fct = c(rep("Thing 1", 3), rep("Thing 2", 3), rep("Thing 3", 3))
) -> xdf

ggplot(
data = xdf,
aes(fill=parts, values=values)
) +
geom_waffle(
color = "white",
size = 1.125,
n_rows = 6
) +
facet_wrap(~fct, ncol=1) +
scale_x_discrete(
expand = c(0,0,0,0)
) +
scale_y_discrete(
expand = c(0,0,0,0)
) +
ggthemes::scale_fill_tableau(name=NULL) +
coord_equal() +
labs(
title = "Faceted Waffle Geoms"
) +
theme_ipsum_rc(grid="") +
theme_enhance_waffle()
```

### Waffle Bar Charts with scales!

``` r
library(dplyr)
library(waffle)

storms %>%
filter(year >= 2010) %>%
count(year, status) -> storms_df

ggplot(
data = storms_df,
aes(fill = status, values = n)
) +
geom_waffle(
color = "white",
size = .25,
n_rows = 10,
flip = TRUE
) +
facet_wrap(
~year,
nrow = 1,
strip.position = "bottom"
) +
scale_x_discrete() +
scale_y_continuous(
labels = function(x) x * 10, # make this multiplier the same as n_rows
expand = c(0,0)
) +
ggthemes::scale_fill_tableau(name=NULL) +
coord_equal() +
labs(
x = "Year", y = "Count",
title = "Faceted Waffle Bar Chart",
subtitle = "{dplyr} storms data"
) +
theme_minimal(
base_family = "Roboto Condensed"
) +
theme(
panel.grid = element_blank(),
axis.ticks.y = element_line()
) +
guides(
fill = guide_legend(reverse = TRUE)
)
```

### Basic example

``` r
parts <- c(80, 30, 20, 10)
waffle(parts, rows = 8)
```

### Use a data frame

``` r
parts <- data.frame(
names = LETTERS[1:4],
vals = c(80, 30, 20, 10)
)

waffle(parts, rows = 8)
```

### Slightly more complex example

``` r
c(
`Un-breached\nUS Population` = (318 - 11 - 79),
`Premera` = 11,
`Anthem` = 79
) -> parts
```

``` r
waffle(
parts = parts,
rows = 8,
size = 1,
colors = c("#969696", "#1879bf", "#009bda"),
legend_pos = "bottom"
)
```

**Health records breaches as fraction of US Population**

One square == 1m ppl

``` r
waffle(
parts = parts / 10,
rows = 3,
colors = c("#969696", "#1879bf", "#009bda")
)
```

**Health records breaches as fraction of US Population**

(One square == 10m ppl)

``` r
library(extrafont)

waffle(
parts = parts / 10,
rows = 3,
colors = c("#969696", "#1879bf", "#009bda"),
use_glyph = "medkit",
size = 8
) +
expand_limits(
y = c(0, 4)
)
```

### Replicating an old favourite

![](https://graphics8.nytimes.com/images/2008/07/20/business/20debtgraphic.jpg)

Via:

``` r
c(
`Mortgage\n($84,911)` = 84911,
`Auto and\ntuition loans\n($14,414)` = 14414,
`Home equity loans\n($10,062)` = 10062,
`Credit Cards\n($8,565)` = 8565
) -> savings
```

``` r
waffle(
parts = savings / 392,
rows = 7,
size = 0.5,
legend_pos = "bottom",
colors = c("#c7d4b6", "#a3aabd", "#a0d0de", "#97b5cf")
)
```

**Average Household Savings Each Year**

(1 square == \$392)

### More replication

Similar to

``` r
professional <- c(`Male` = 44, `Female (56%)` = 56)
```

``` r
waffle(
parts = professional,
rows = 10,
size = 0.5,
colors = c("#af9139", "#544616")
)
```

### Keeps factor by default levels now

With:

``` r
iron(
waffle(
parts = c(thing1 = 0, thing2 = 100),
rows = 5
),
waffle(
parts = c(thing1 = 25, thing2 = 75),
rows = 5
)
)
```

Without (you can disable this via `keep` parameter now):

``` r
iron(
waffle(
parts = c(thing1 = 0, thing2 = 100),
rows = 5,
keep = FALSE
),
waffle(
parts = c(thing1 = 25, thing2 = 75),
rows = 5,
keep = FALSE
)
)
```

**Professional Workforce Makeup**

Iron example (left-align & padding for multiple plots)

``` r
pain.adult.1997 <- c(`YOY (406)` = 406, `Adult (24)` = 24)

waffle(
parts = pain.adult.1997 / 2,
rows = 7,
size = 0.5,
colors = c("#c7d4b6", "#a3aabd"),
title = "Paine Run Brook Trout Abundance (1997)",
xlab = "1 square = 2 fish", pad = 3
) -> A

pine.adult.1997 <- c(`YOY (221)` = 221, `Adult (143)` = 143)

waffle(
parts = pine.adult.1997 / 2,
rows = 7,
size = 0.5,
colors = c("#c7d4b6", "#a3aabd"),
title = "Piney River Brook Trout Abundance (1997)",
xlab = "1 square = 2 fish", pad = 8
) -> B

stan.adult.1997 <- c(`YOY (270)` = 270, `Adult (197)` = 197)

waffle(
parts = stan.adult.1997 / 2,
rows = 7,
size = 0.5,
colors = c("#c7d4b6", "#a3aabd"),
title = "Staunton River Trout Abundance (1997)",
xlab = "1 square = 2 fish"
) -> C

iron(A, B, C)
```
