    Default Pie Chart help

    Hi forum,

    I'm new to the forum and to java, what I thought would be simple(and it probably is) is giving me trouble. I have a project where I need to draw a pie chart based on input. I have 99% of the project done, I'm just not sure on how to draw the pie chart. Here is my code for the chart panel. I tried doing it as a bar graph, I just don't know how to do the pie. Please help point me in the right direction


    import javax.swing.*;
    import java.awt.*;

    public class PanelChart extends JPanel {

    private double Boston;
    private double Miami;
    private double Dallas;
    private double StLouis;
    private double KansasCity;
    private double Seattle;
    private double LosAngeles;
    private double total;
    private Graphics g;

    public void paintComponent(Graphics g)
    {
    super.paintComponent(g);
    this.g = g;
    drawChart();

    }

    public void setPopulation(double boston, double miami, double dallas, double stLouis, double kansasCity, double seattle, double losAngeles) {
    Boston = boston;
    Miami = miami;
    Dallas = dallas;
    StLouis = stLouis;
    KansasCity = kansasCity;
    Seattle = seattle;
    LosAngeles = losAngeles;

    this.total = this.Boston +
    this.Miami +
    this.Dallas +
    this.StLouis +
    this.KansasCity +
    this.Seattle +
    this.LosAngeles;

    repaint();
    }

    public void drawChart()
    {
    int pctBoston = (int)(Boston/total*100);
    int pctMiami = (int)(Miami/total*100);
    int pctDallas = (int)(Dallas/total*100);

    int pctSeattle = (int)(Seattle/total*100);
    int pctLosAngeles = (int)(LosAngeles/total*100);

    int factor = 55;
    g.setColor(Color.magenta);
    //g.fillRect(25, factor * 1 - 15, pctBoston * 3, 10);
    g.fillOval(25, factor * 1 - 15, pctBoston * 3, 10);
    //g.drawOval();
    g.setColor(Color.yellow);
    g.fillRect(25,factor * 2-15,pctMiami*3,10);
    g.setColor(Color.gray);
    g.fillRect(25,factor * 3-15,pctDallas*3,10);

    g.fillRect(25,factor * 4-15,pctStLouis*3,10);
    g.setColor(Color.red);
    g.fillRect(25,factor * 5-15,pctKansasCity*3,10);
    g.setColor(Color.red);
    g.fillRect(25,factor * 5-15,pctSeattle *3,10);

    g.setColor(Color.red);
    g.fillRect(25,factor * 5-15,pctLosAngeles*3,10);
