Fork of Customizing Axes
This bar chart displays the top 10 most populous countries using 2018 population estimates from United Nations World Population Prospects, loaded via `d3.csv`. It shows each country as a horizontal bar with a linear population scale and a banded country scale, demonstrating axis customization through `d3.axisLeft` and `d3.axisBottom` with tick formatting that abbreviates large numbers. The chart uses `d3.scaleLinear` and `d3.scaleBand` for scales, removes unnecessary axis domains and lines, and adds styled labels and a title via SVG text elements. The population values are multiplied by 1000 after parsing.
