# tikzpizza

Pizzas for fraction problems, drawn with TikZ.

`tikzpizza` draws cartoon pizzas for maths worksheets, tests and slides. You
choose the shape, how it is cut, what goes on each slice and how much has been
eaten:

- **shapes**: round, square, rectangular, or any regular polygon; polygons are
  sized to hold as much pizza as a round one, so comparisons are fair;
- **cuts**: equal slices (equal in area, whatever the shape), slices of any
  sizes you list, grids and strips (the tavern cut on a round pizza),
  off-centre cuts that are fair by area or unfair by angle, sloppy cuts, or
  hidden cuts;
- **toppings**: four sauces, three cheeses and fourteen toppings (shrimp,
  spinach and rounds of fresh mozzarella among them), each on exactly the
  slices you choose, spread thick or thin, or an exact number per slice for
  counting; add your own with `\pizzanewtopping`;
- **eating**: eaten or removed slices (with a dashed ghost of the whole if you
  like), separated and pulled-out slices, bites from the crust or the tip, and
  a tray, sheet or board with the crumbs left behind.

```latex
\usepackage{tikzpizza}
...
\begin{tikzpicture}
  \pizzatray[slices=8, eaten={2,3}, pepperoni={on=1}, mushroom={on=4-8}]
\end{tikzpicture}

Ali ate \pizzapic[scale=0.15, slices=4, eaten=1] of a pizza.
```
