This example demonstrates the D3 general update pattern with a bowl of fruit represented as colored circles. Apples appear and disappear, and one apple transforms into a lemon, while all changes animate smoothly over one second. The code uses d3.select, d3.range, scaleOrdinal for color and radius mappings, and transition().duration() with .attr() and .remove() to handle enter, update, and exit selections. Data consists of objects with type and id properties, rendered as SVG circles.
