This area chart visualizes world population growth from 1950 to 2015, using a smooth, filled curve to show the total population over time. The chart employs D3’s `area` generator with a `curveBasis` for the smooth line, and uses `scaleTime` and `scaleLinear` for the axes. Data is loaded from a CSV file via `csv()`, with a y-axis tick formatter that converts large numbers to billions.
