IMDB Top 250 Movies Scatter Plot with React & D3
A scatter plot of the IMDB Top 250 movies displays release year on the x-axis and rating on the y-axis, using steel-blue circles. The React component loads the dataset via `d3.csv` and passes it to a custom `viz` function, which employs `d3.scaleLinear` and `d3.extent` to set the scales. Static circle attributes like `cx`, `cy`, and `r` are set using `selection.attr`, with no axes or interactivity included.
