Circular plots are useful to represent complicated informations. They are used in 2 specific cases: when you have long axis and numerous categories, and when you want to show relationships between elements. The circos gallery displays several examples of circular plots, what gives a nice overview of the possibilities. Circos is the most famous

tool to create circular plots. Thanks to Zuguang Gu, the Circlize library makes the circos functions available in R! It implements low-level graphic functions for adding common graphics in a circular layout. This page aims to learn you how to use the library, so I strongly advise to read the graphics in the proposed order!
