This scatter plot visualizes video game sales data from the vgsales.csv dataset, plotting each game’s release year on the x-axis against its global sales on the y-axis. Rendered as an SVG using D3 v6, the code applies `d3.scaleLinear` for both axes and draws semi-transparent circles with a radius of 4. The data is loaded via `d3.csv`, and axes are generated with `d3.axisLeft` and `d3.axisBottom`, with tick formatting modified to prevent commas in the year labels.

AI-generated description

A vanilla HTML implementation of a D3 scatter plot.

Forked and authored by Daniel Ribaudo.

I added comments to this file to demonstrate understanding of various pieces of code. I edited the required segments (import, circle radius, and circle opacity) as well as other segments (changing the map function whilst importing rows and changing the tickFormat on the x-axis to prevent years from having commas within them).

The data visualized comes from this gist: Video Game Sales

Within this dataset, there is a listing of video game sales per country. Each video game listed is labelled with a genre, year, publisher, and platform.

D3 Scatter Plot for Video Game Sales

This scatter plot visualizes video game sales data from Kaggle, showing global sales figures against release year for each title. The visualization uses D3 v6 with an SVG rendering approach, employing `d3.csv` for data loading, `scaleLinear` for both axes, and `axisLeft`/`axisBottom` for tick generation. Circles are positioned using x/y coordinates derived from the year and sales values, with a fixed radius of 5 pixels, and the chart fills the entire browser window using `window.innerWidth` and `window.innerHeight`.

D3 Scatter plot

This scatter plot visualizes the global sales of top-rated video games from 2016, with each game represented as a circular point. The data, loaded from a local CSV file, maps game names along the x-axis and their sales figures in millions along the y-axis. The visualization is built with D3 v6, using functions like `d3.scaleBand` and `d3.scaleLinear` to manage the axes, while `d3.select`, `d3.append`, and `d3.axisBottom` handle the SVG element creation and axis rendering. Each dot is positioned using the computed scales, and steelblue fill distinguishes the data points.

D3 Scatter Plot for Video Game Sales

This D3 v6 scatter plot visualizes global video game sales across years, with each point representing a game and its platform encoded by color. Using SVG rendering, it scales the x-axis by year and y-axis by sales, allowing viewers to compare platform performance over time. The chart includes a d3.brushX brush for interactive selection and highlighting of data ranges, with d3.scaleLinear handling axis scales. Data comes from Kaggle’s video game sales dataset, parsed from CSV via d3.csv.

D3 Scatter Plot of Top Video Game Sales showing Release Year (X) vs. Global Sales in Millions (Y)

This D3 scatter plot visualizes top video game sales, mapping release year on the x-axis against global sales in millions on the y-axis. Each circle represents a game, with its position determined by the `scaleLinear` scales and `extent` functions, while `axisLeft` and `axisBottom` render the axes. The SVG is sized to the browser window, and data is loaded from a CSV via `d3.csv`, with rows parsed to convert numeric strings to numbers. The plot fills the viewport, allowing exploration of sales trends across gaming history.

D3 Boxplot

This example displays a bar chart of global sales figures for video games in 2016, with each game’s sales in millions of units shown on the y-axis and game names on the x-axis. It uses D3 v6 to build the visualization, loading data from a CSV file that is manually encoded into a JavaScript array. The SVG rendering uses `d3.scaleBand` for the categorical x-axis, `d3.scaleLinear` for the numeric y-axis, and `d3.axisBottom` and `d3.axisLeft` to generate axis ticks, with circles placed via `append('circle')` and positioning computed from the scales.

a scatterplot

This scatterplot displays the top 30 best-selling video games, plotting each game’s name along the y-axis against its global sales on the x-axis using circles. The visualization uses d3.csv to load local sales data, then employs d3.scalePoint for the categorical game names and d3.scaleLinear for sales magnitudes, with d3.axisLeft and d3.axisBottom rendering the axes. The SVG is generated through D3 v6 selections, incorporating margins, tick marks, and a formatted sales label, with the data sourced from Kaggle’s video game sales dataset.

A Scatter Plot

This scatter plot visualizes video game sales across regions, showing each game’s release year on the x-axis and its sales figures on the y-axis, with points colored by genre. A dropdown menu lets viewers switch between regional and global sales attributes. The visualization uses React with D3 v6 scales (`scaleTime`, `scaleLinear`, `scaleOrdinal`) and SVG rendering. Hovering over the color legend filters the displayed points by genre, while a native SVG `<title>` element provides tooltips on each circle. Data comes from a Kaggle dataset of video game sales.

Fork of scatter-plot

This scatter plot visualizes global video game sales data, comparing North American and European sales on the x- and y-axes while mapping Japanese and global sales to point radius dimensions. The visualization uses D3 v6’s `csv` loader, `scaleLinear`, `extent`, and `axisLeft`/`axisBottom` functions, rendering circles as SVG elements. Point colors are determined by the game’s publisher, with a custom `marker()` function that assigns distinct colors to specific developers like Ubisoft Montreal and Rockstar North, while defaulting to brown for others. The chart includes axis labels and a title, with styling applied via CSS.
