D3 Examples - 30. stock return chart

30. stock return chart

This line chart is constructed from a TSV file storing the daily average temperatures of New York, San Francisco and Austin over the last year. The chart employs conventional margins and a number of D3 features:

d3.tsv - load and parse data

d3.time.format - parse dates

d3.time.scale - x-position encoding

d3.scale.linear - y-position encoding

d3.scale.category10, a d3.scale.ordinal - color encoding

d3.extent, d3.min and d3.max - compute domains

d3.keys - compute column names

d3.svg.axis - display axes

d3.svg.line - display line shape
