Five orange dots mark Monday through Friday along a horizontal line using a point scale, with each dot positioned by its day value. The `d3.scalePoint()` API maps the categorical domain to a continuous pixel range, and the console logs the scale's `step()` method to reveal the uniform spacing between points. The example renders in SVG within a 700-by-240 pixel canvas, using D3 v7 and data from a hardcoded array of weekday objects.

Point scale

A small set of orange circles demonstrates D3's `d3.scalePoint()`, which maps categorical weekday names to x-coordinates. Each circle is placed along a horizontal line based on its associated day, with a fixed radius of 4 pixels, while the y-position is constant. The data, a simple array of weekday/value pairs, is bound to circles using `selectAll().data().enter().append()`. The visualization uses static SVG rendering within an HTML page, with all styling defined in CSS and the scale’s range set to 200 pixels.

D3 Scale Functions

This example demonstrates how D3 scale functions map input data values to visual output positions. It plots a set of numeric data points as circles along a horizontal axis, with each value labeled above its corresponding circle. The code uses `d3.scaleLinear()` to map the domain (0–10) to a pixel range, and renders the result as SVG elements. An axis is added using `d3.axisBottom()`, and the utility function `getScale` supports multiple scale types, including `scaleSqrt`, `scaleLog`, and `scaleBand`, though only linear is actively applied here.

D3 Scale

This example demonstrates how D3 scales map input data to visual output, using a linear scale to position circles along the x-axis and a multi-domain color scale to assign fill colors. The circles represent values from -10 to 10, with colors transitioning from red through gray to blue. It renders as an SVG using d3.scaleLinear for both positioning and color interpolation, with data bound through d3.select and .join(). The code references D3 v7 scale types in utils.js, including scaleTime, scaleBand, and scaleOrdinal, though only linear scales are actively applied.

scale

This example demonstrates the foundational concept of D3 scales by computing and logging values from linear, square root, and time scales, then calculating the extent of a small dataset and applying a linear scale with a nice domain. It uses the d3 v7 library, importing scaleLinear, scaleSqrt, and scaleTime from d3, and renders to a blank SVG canvas. The code defines explicit domains and ranges to show how input values map to output pixel positions, with a dataset of five numeric values and an extent-based domain.

D3 Scale Function PRactice

This example demonstrates D3 scale functions by mapping a small array of numeric values to positions along an SVG axis. It renders circles and labels on a horizontal line using a linear scale, then displays the corresponding axis with `d3.axisBottom`. The code imports a custom `getScale` utility from `utils.js` that switches between D3’s scale types—including `scaleLinear`, `scaleSqrt`, `scaleLog`, and others—although only the linear scale is actively applied. The visualization uses SVG rendering with a fixed 960×500 canvas and D3 v7 via `bundle.js`.

D3 scales() scaleQuantize() in action

This example demonstrates how `d3.scaleQuantize()` maps a continuous numeric input domain to discrete output ranges, using it to assign fill colors to a series of rectangles. The visualization renders 100 SVG rectangles, positioned with a `d3.scaleLinear()` scale and colored with a quantize scale that divides the domain [0, 100] into four color bands: lightblue, orange, lightgreen, and pink. The code uses D3 v7’s `join()` method to bind data from `d3.range()` and style each rectangle’s fill based on its value.

D3 scales() scaleOrdinal() in action

This example displays the twelve month abbreviations in a horizontal row across an SVG canvas, demonstrating how D3 scales map data values to visual properties. Using the D3 v7 library, it applies a linear scale (`d3.scaleLinear`) to position each text label along the x-axis, while an ordinal scale (`d3.scaleOrdinal`) assigns a fill color of black to the first month and grey to the remaining ones. The labels are rendered as SVG text elements using D3's selection and join methods.

scaleBand() in action

This example demonstrates a horizontal bar chart where each bar’s vertical position and height are determined by `d3.scaleBand`. Five data items, each with a day label and a numeric value, are mapped to a band scale with a range of 0 to 200 pixels and inner padding. The SVG renders orange rectangles whose `y` attribute comes from the scale, `height` equals the band’s `bandwidth()`, and `width` reflects the data value. The code uses D3 v7’s selection `.join()` to bind data to `rect` elements.
