Forked from Making a Bar Chart

This example shows a horizontal bar chart ranking the top 10 most populous countries based on 2018 estimates from the United Nations World Population Prospects. It uses D3 v5 (d3.scaleLinear, d3.scaleBand, d3.axisLeft, d3.axisBottom) to map population values to bar lengths and country names to y-axis positions. The chart customizes axes by removing domain lines and tick marks, and formats tick labels with a custom function replacing 'G' (giga) with 'B' (billion). Population data is read from a CSV file and multiplied by 1000 before rendering as SVG rectangles.
