d3 basics
This example introduces fundamental D3.js concepts using a static bar chart of population data from ten countries, loaded from a CSV file. The visualization demonstrates how to set up an SVG canvas, define margins, and create a linear scale (`d3.scaleLinear`) to map population values from 0 to 100,000 onto the chart’s width. An axis is generated with `d3.axisBottom` and appended to a grouped `<g>` element, showing how D3 handles scales and axes for basic data representation. The code relies on D3 v5’s selection and scale APIs, with rendering done entirely via SVG elements.
