World Famous Mathematicians
This scatterplot shows the relative fame of renowned mathematicians based on their Historical Popularity Index and birth year, with each point sized by popularity and colored by country of birth. Hovering reveals a tooltip with the mathematician’s name, birth date, and place of birth, along with a link to their Wikipedia article. The visualization uses D3 v5’s `scaleLinear`, `axisBottom`, `axisLeft`, and `d3-tip` for interaction, rendering SVG circles over axes with gridlines. Data comes from the Pantheon dataset, loaded via `d3.csv`.
