Making a Bar Chart
✓ Published1🌍 Public
This bar chart displays the 2018 population estimates for the ten most populous countries, sourced from the United Nations World Population Prospects 2017. The chart uses horizontal bars, with countries on the y-axis and population on the x-axis, rendered as an SVG. The visualization is built with D3 v5, employing `scaleLinear` and `scaleBand` for scales, and `axisLeft` and `axisBottom` to draw the axes. Data is loaded from a CSV file using D3’s `csv` function, and population values are multiplied by 1000 to reflect the actual figures.
