Making a Bar Chart
This bar chart displays the population of the ten most populous countries, based on 2018 estimates from the United Nations World Population Prospects. The visualization uses D3 v5 to map population values to a linear x-axis and country names to a categorical y-axis, with a custom tick formatter abbreviating large numbers with suffixes like "B." The chart is rendered as an SVG, with styled bars, axis labels, and a title, and the code relies on D3's `scaleLinear`, `scaleBand`, `axisLeft`, `axisBottom`, and `csv` utilities for data input and axis generation.
