This bar chart displays the population of the thirteen most populous countries, using 2018 estimates from the United Nations’ World Population Prospects. Population values are shown as horizontal bars, ordered from China down to the Philippines. The visualization is built with D3 v5, using `d3.csv` to load the data, `scaleLinear` and `scaleBand` for the axes, and `axisLeft` and `axisBottom` for tick marks. Rectangles are appended to an SVG and styled with CSS, with the data rendered as raw SVG elements.

AI-generated description

This bar chart shows population of the thirteen most populous countries. The data comes from the year 2018 estimate in United Nations: World Population Prospects 2017.

Note: That link doesn't give data for the year 2018 but for the year 2015. In this example, I've used the data provided in the class (which is close to the downloaded data).
