Making a Bar Chart
This bar chart shows the populations of the top 10 most populous countries based on 2018 estimates from the UN’s World Population Prospects, with each bar labeled by country and scaled to population. Built with D3 v5, the visualization uses `scaleLinear` for the x-axis, `scaleBand` for the y-axis, and `axisLeft` and `axisBottom` for the ticks, all rendered as SVG via `select` and `append`. The data is loaded from a CSV file using `csv`, with population values multiplied by 1,000, and the chart is drawn inside an SVG container with margins and steelblue rectangles.
