This example demonstrates scatter-like exploration of automobile data through a p5.js canvas. It visualizes engine efficiency by sizing randomly placed circles according to miles-per-gallon values from the loaded CSV dataset. The sketch uses p5.js `loadTable()` in the `preload()` function to fetch the cars.csv file, then reads the `economy (mpg)` column and maps its values to circle diameters. Drawing happens only once due to `noLoop()`, with dimensions ranging across the full 600-pixel canvas.

p5.js CSV Loader

A bar chart visualization displays fuel economy data for vintage cars using p5.js. The sketch loads a CSV dataset of car specifications through p5.js’s `loadTable` API in the `preload` function, then renders vertical bars in the `draw` loop that scale proportionally to each vehicle’s miles-per-gallon value. The example demonstrates parsing tabular data from a remote CSV file and mapping numeric columns to visual elements on a canvas.

P5 CSV Loader in CS 360

This example shows a simple bar chart of fuel economy values for a collection of cars, with each bar’s length proportional to miles per gallon. The visualization uses the p5.js library’s `loadTable` function in `preload()` to fetch a CSV file from a GitHub Gist, then iterates through the `economy (mpg)` column in the `draw()` loop to render rectangles on an 800×800 canvas. The data source is the provided `cars.csv` file.

CSV with P5

This example demonstrates one approach to loading and visualizing CSV data with P5.js. It renders a bar chart of car fuel economy values from the provided `cars.csv` dataset, drawing one rectangle per car with a width proportional to its miles-per-gallon rating. The sketch parses the relevant CSV column into numbers and uses P5’s `setup` and `draw` functions to render the static visualization, relying on the `createCanvas`, `rect`, `noStroke`, and `noLoop` APIs.

p5.js example

This p5.js example presents multiple linked visualizations of a vehicle dataset, including a bar chart and dot plot comparing drivetrain and manufacturer effects on average miles per gallon. A heat map section is also coded, though its display is incomplete. The sketch loads CSV data from a Google Sheets URL using `loadTable`, processes the data in JavaScript, and renders the charts with the p5.js drawing API (`createCanvas`, `rect`, `ellipse`, `line`), using a static canvas sized at 1500 by 4500 pixels.

p5.js.Strip Plot with jittering

This p5.js example visualizes highway fuel efficiency for seven car makes, plotting each vehicle’s miles per gallon as a jittered point to reveal data distribution. The sketch loads a pre-cleaned CSV from a GitHub gist using `loadTable`, groups rows by make into a `Map`, and randomizes horizontal offsets via `random()`. Rendering uses Canvas drawing functions like `point()` and `line()` to create a strip chart with labeled axes, color-coded points, and a jitter effect that reduces overlap.

Scatter plot

This scatter plot example demonstrates fundamental D3.js DOM manipulation by rendering automotive data from the auto-mpg.csv dataset. The code uses d3.select and d3.csv to load and parse the data, then appends circles to the SVG using d3’s enter/append pattern. Each circle is positioned with hardcoded cx and cy values, so the visualization currently shows all points clustered at a single location rather than mapping mpg or other variables to axes. The implementation serves primarily as a basic introduction to data binding and SVG element creation.

Cars scatter plot

This scatter plot of cars from the auto-mpg dataset shows the relationship between weight and horsepower for individual vehicles, with each circle representing a car. D3.js v5 scales the data to fit the SVG canvas, and axis generators draw labeled tick marks with gridlines. The code loads the CSV data with `d3.csv`, converts numeric fields, and renders the circles using a linear scale for both axes, with the title and axis labels added as SVG text.

Cars Scatter Plot

This example visualizes the relationship between miles per gallon and horsepower for a dataset of cars from the auto-mpg CSV. Each car is represented as a steel-blue circle with a black stroke, positioned using d3.scaleLinear with d3.extent to map data domains to screen coordinates. The code renders SVG elements and includes customizable axes with tick lines and titles, built using d3.axisLeft and d3.axisBottom. The data is loaded asynchronously via d3.csv, with numeric fields coerced to numbers before rendering.
