This example demonstrates a reusable scatter plot built with D3.js, visualizing the classic Iris dataset. The chart renders as an SVG and plots sepal length against sepal width, with each of the 150 flowers represented by a circle. The visualization includes styled axes with custom fonts, and the code is structured as a reusable chart function that accepts data and accessor functions for x and y values, following the principles of the "Towards Reusable Charts" pattern. The design highlights flexibility in mapping data columns to visual channels while maintaining a clean, minimal aesthetic with a border around the SVG and Poiret One typography for axis labels.

AI-generated description

A reusable D3 scatter plot, constructed using Towards Reusable Charts and Standalone Scatter Plot as inspiration.

In the original reusable charts example, the comments state

// Convert data to standard representation greedily;
// this is needed for nondeterministic accessors.

In this adaptation, a simplifying assumption was made that no nondeterministic accessors will be given. Going one step further, an assumption was made that accessors will only want to access specific "columns" of data, meaning properties on each row object.

Reusable Charts

This example demonstrates a reusable scatterplot component built with D3.js, visualizing the classic Iris flower dataset. It plots sepal length against petal length, with each flower represented by a circle of fixed radius. The visualization includes axes, axis labels, and a title, using D3’s scaleLinear, axisLeft, axisBottom, and csv data loading. The code implements a configurable chart function with a fluent API for setting width, height, data, value accessors, margins, and radius, highlighting the reusable pattern.

Reusable Scatter Plot

This example demonstrates a reusable scatter plot that visualizes the Iris dataset, plotting sepal length against petal length for each flower variety. The chart uses D3.js v7 with SVG rendering to display circles representing individual data points, with axes scaled linearly from zero to the maximum attribute values. The implementation defines a reusable `scatterplot()` function that accepts a selector, data, and two attribute names, enabling the same visualization logic to be applied to different data fields. The JavaScript code leverages `d3.csv()` for data loading, `d3.scaleLinear()` for coordinate mapping, and D3 axis generators to create the chart.

Reusable scatter plot

This example demonstrates a reusable scatter plot component built with D3.js, visualizing the Iris dataset. The plot maps petal width to the x-axis and sepal length to the y-axis, with species encoded through distinct SVG symbols. The implementation uses D3's `scaleLinear`, `scaleOrdinal`, `axisLeft`, `axisBottom`, `symbol`, and the `join` operator to create a flexible, configurable chart. The iris data is loaded from a CSV file, and the SVG rendering adapts to the full browser window dimensions.

Reusable Scatterplot Example

This reusable scatterplot demonstrates the Iris Dataset by plotting flower measurements as animated, circular marks. The visualization cycles through different feature combinations every two seconds, rotating the x-axis between petal width, sepal width, petal length, and sepal length while keeping sepal length on the y-axis. Built with D3.js, the code uses a custom `scatterPlot` function that leverages `scaleLinear`, `extent`, and axis generators (`axisLeft`, `axisBottom`) to render SVG elements. The example also shows a reusable chart API pattern, where configuration methods like `.data()`, `.xValue()`, and `.margin()` are chained to create an independent, customizable plotting component.

Reusable scatter plot

This example shows a reusable scatter plot of the Iris dataset, encoding petal width on the x-axis, sepal length on the y-axis, and species as symbol shapes. Built with D3.js, it uses a custom `scatterPlot` function that takes data, value accessors, and margin configuration, then renders SVG paths via the `symbol` and `symbols` APIs. It also applies `scaleLinear` for axes, `scaleOrdinal` for categorical mapping, and `axisLeft`/`axisBottom` for tick marks, with data parsed from a CSV URL.

Reusable Scatterplot Example

This example presents a reusable scatterplot component built with D3.js (v3 via CDN) and rendered as SVG. It visualizes the classic Iris dataset, mapping sepal length to the x-axis, petal length to the y-axis, and sepal width to the radius of each circle, while species determines color. The chart is configured through a chainable API (e.g., `.outerWidth()`, `.xAxisLabel()`, `.rMax()`), demonstrating how to load D3 from UNPKG, import local ES6 modules, and implement a modular, reusable visualization with custom axes, scales, and labels.

Reusable D3 Scatter Plot

This example presents a reusable scatter plot visualizing the Iris Dataset, mapping petal length to the x-axis and sepal length to the y-axis. It demonstrates a configurable D3 chart factory pattern, where the scatter plot function accepts chained setters for width, height, data, accessors, margins, and point radius. The code uses D3's `scaleLinear`, `extent`, `axisLeft`, and `axisBottom` APIs to render an SVG with circles and axes. The data loads from a GitHub Gist CSV file, and the visualization fills the entire browser window.

Reusable scatterplot

This example demonstrates a reusable scatterplot component built with D3.js, visualizing the classic Iris dataset loaded from a CSV file. The chart plots petal length and width measurements as circles, with axes generated using D3's scaleLinear and axisLeft/axisBottom functions. The scatterPlot function exposes configurable setters for width, height, data, margins, and radius, allowing the chart to be adapted and reused. The visualization renders as SVG, sized to fill the browser window.
