[CodenStuff]

Welcome to challenge #3

Off the charts

The title usually gives a clue to what the challenge will be so have you guessed yet?.

Today's challenge is to create an app that can produce visual charts, such as a pie chart, bar chart or a line chart. This is an image example (just an example) of the type of thing we are looking for in this challenge:



The user must be able to enter some chart options and values for those options which will then display the results graphically in some type of chart. Lets say for example I want to rate members on how good looking they are and the options are: #comathi, #Scottie1972 and #CodenStuff

comathi would get a value of 5
scottie also a value of 5
codenstuff would get 90 (obviously I get the most lol)

So the app would take that information and display it in a pie chart that would look something like this:



And that is what your app needs to do.

So create an app that takes user inputted information and turns it into a visual chart using graphics, not just showing numbers and text.

Requirements for this challenge:
Must be made in VB.net or C#
Must show the results using graphics like a pie chart or bar chart..or any other similar way you can think of (be creative)
Must not use a component specifically designed for charts, you have to code it yourself.

This challenge may be quite "challenging" for some but please give it your best shot and points will be awarded for genuine effort and bonus points will be awarded for creativity and design.

Good luck cooll;
