Fork of Customizing Axes
This bar chart displays the population of the top 10 most populous countries, based on 2018 estimates from the United Nations World Population Prospects. It shows each country’s total population as a horizontal bar, ordered by rank. The visualization customizes D3 axes by removing domain lines, adding tick marks that extend across the plotting area, and formatting tick labels with a `.3s` format to abbreviate large numbers. The code uses d3.csv, scaleLinear, scaleBand, axisBottom, and axisLeft, rendering in SVG with populations multiplied by 1000.
