Talk:Euler diagram

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi,

I have not got time this morning to collect all the images off the site and wikify this page yet. So I will try to do this tonight.

[edit] copyright

I hope this is not a problem.


[edit] This is all my own words now

So no copyright problem. Also the diagrams included were creted by me using a Java based tool that I wrote. So again no copyright problems.

  • Heh, isn't that nice...*voice trails off*

[edit] Connecting languages

I added this page to the Japanese Wikipedia, but I'm not sure how to connect it to this one under the "in other languages" bar. Can someone help me out? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.126.117.44 (talk) 16:45, 10 April 2007 (UTC).

Add [[ja:NAME OF THE ARTICLE ON THE JAPANESE WIKIPEDIA]] at the bottom of the article on the English Wikipedia where there is a pt and zh link of the same type. Lexicon (talk) 18:00, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Relation to pie charts

Are Euler diagrams and Venn diagrams only used for logic, or also for statistics? For a single variable, such as the color of cars, I can make a pie chart to illustrate which are more common. But for two variables, such as the brand and color of cars, it could be useful to draw diagrams that indicate the overlap, while the area of the graph is proportional to the market share. One might find that there are more black Mercedes, more blue Fords and more white Toyotas. Software such as OpenOffice Calc and Microsoft Excel can do pie charts, but not the overlapping kind. If they could, what would that kind of diagram be called? And what software can do such charts? --LA2 00:01, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
