Scatter Plot
This scatter plot visualizes the populations of the top 10 most populous countries, using data from the United Nations 2018 estimates. The chart initially appears as a bar chart but renders the data points as SVG circles, with the y-axis listing country names and the x-axis scaled linearly to population values. Built with D3 v5, it uses `scaleLinear`, `scaleBand`, `axisBottom`, and `axisLeft` to construct the chart, while customizing axis labels and removing tick lines for a cleaner presentation. The data is loaded from a local CSV file.
