D3 Course 1: Bar Chart
This bar chart displays the population of ten countries, using horizontal bars sorted alphabetically by country name. The visualization is built with D3 v5, loading data from a CSV file and rendering it as SVG. It uses `d3.scaleLinear` and `d3.scaleBand` for positioning, `d3.axisLeft` and `d3.axisBottom` for axes, and `d3.format` to abbreviate large numbers (e.g., converting billions to “B”). The chart includes a title, axis label, and grid lines, with a margin convention applied to the SVG layout.
