Dinosaur D3 Scatter Plot
This scatter plot visualizes dinosaur length against weight, with each point representing a species and hovering revealing its genus, period, diet, and measurements. Using D3 v6, the code loads JSON data from a GitHub gist via `d3.json`, parses numeric fields, scales axes with `scaleLinear`, and renders circles in an SVG. Axis labels are generated with `axisLeft` and `axisBottom`, while `d3.format` handles comma-separated weight values. The dataset originates from the Natural History Museum, London.
