Customizing Axes
This bar chart displays the populations of billionaires Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates, using a horizontal bar layout with customized axes. The data is loaded from a CSV file and scaled with `d3.scaleLinear` for the x-axis and `d3.scaleBand` for the y-axis. It uses `d3.axisBottom` and `d3.axisLeft` to render ticks, with a custom `d3.format` function that converts values to abbreviated units. The chart removes default axis domain lines and adds custom labels and a title via SVG text elements.
