This example demonstrates the general update pattern in D3 with special cases for enter, update, and exit selections. A bowl of fruit animates through a sequence of state changes: five apples appear, one is eaten, an apple becomes a lemon, and another apple is removed. The visualization uses d3.scaleOrdinal for color and radius mapping, with SVG circles and text elements bound to data arrays. Each update triggers a re-render of the fruit bowl, showing how D3 handles data joins with key functions and merges selections.
