A scatter plot displays the population of the top ten most populous countries using circles positioned along a linear x-axis (population count) and a point-based y-axis (country names). The visualization is rendered as SVG using D3 v5, with axes generated via axisBottom and axisLeft, while scaleLinear and scalePoint map the data values. Population values are loaded from a CSV file and multiplied by 1000, with tick labels formatted using D3’s format function to abbreviate large numbers (e.g., ’1.4B’).
