The visualization contrasts exam grade predictions for state and private school students, showing how incorporating school type introduces systematic bias against state students. A scatterplot plots classroom scores against exam scores, overlaying trend lines for each school type, while side-by-side histograms display model prediction errors with and without the school-type adjustment. The code uses D3.js with SVG for the scatterplot and histograms, plus seeded random number generation via `seedrandom` to create synthetic student data. Simulated data points are colored orange and steelblue to distinguish school types, with tooltips attached via a custom `attachTooltip` helper.
