This example demonstrates D3’s general update pattern by animating a bowl of fruit through timed state changes. Apples are removed, replaced with lemons, or filtered out, with D3’s data join (`selection.data`, `enter`, `merge`, `exit`) updating SVG circles and text accordingly. The code uses `scaleOrdinal` for color and radius mapping, and `selection.attr` for positioning, rendering entirely as SVG. Each fruit’s identity is tracked via a random `id`, ensuring stable element binding across updates.
