Fork of Customizing Axes
This visualization displays two horizontal bar charts comparing population values for named countries, with the charts placed side by side for comparison. The bars are rendered as SVG rectangles using D3 v5, with scales from `d3.scaleLinear` for the x-axis and `d3.scaleBand` for the categorical y-axis. The code customizes axes by removing domain lines, adding grid lines via `tickSize`, and formatting tick labels with `d3.format`. Population data is loaded from CSV files using `d3.csv` and multiplied by 1000.
AI-generated descriptionThis bar chart shows population of the top 10 most populous countries. The data comes from the year 2018 estimate in United Nations: World Population Prospects 2017. It also demonstrates customization of D3 axes.
