Customizing Axes
This bar chart shows the populations of the top 10 most populous countries, using 2018 estimates from the United Nations World Population Prospects. It builds on a basic bar chart by customizing the D3 axes: removing the y-axis domain and tick lines, formatting x-axis tick labels with `d3.format` to abbreviate numbers (e.g., converting 'G' to 'B'), and adding an axis label and title. The code uses `d3.csv`, `d3.scaleLinear`, `d3.scaleBand`, `d3.axisLeft`, and `d3.axisBottom` with SVG rendering.
