Create a polar area chart (also known as a Coxcomb or Rose chart) using a radar layout with 5 stacked column series and 12 categories arranged in a full circle. Generate random values between 0-10 for each category/series combination. Configure columns to span full width with subtle borders. Use a circular category axis with outward labels and a radial value axis rendered as concentric circles. Add a cursor with zoom behavior and both horizontal and vertical scrollbars. Show tooltips with series name and value. Animate series sequentially on load. Apply an animated theme. Use amCharts 5 library.
