This example shows a scatterplot of ten data points, with each point labeled by its coordinates in red text. The visualization demonstrates how to apply padding to D3 linear scales, using `d3.scaleLinear` to map the dataset's x and y values to positions within the SVG canvas, keeping points inside the chart boundaries. The `padding` variable reserves space on all sides, and circle radii are calculated as the square root of the height minus the y-value.
