The previous challenges covered how to display data from an array and how to add CSS classes. You can combine these lessons to create a simple bar chart. There are two steps to this:
Create a div for each data point in the array
Give each div a dynamic height, using a callback function in the style() method that sets height equal to the data value
Recall the format to set a style using a callback function:
selection.style('cssProperty', d => d);
Add the style() method to the code in the editor to set the height property for each element. Use a callback function to return the value of the data point with the string px added to it.
The first div should have a height of 12 pixels.
assert.strictEqual(document.querySelectorAll('div')[0]?.style.height, '12px');
The second div should have a height of 31 pixels.
assert.strictEqual(document.querySelectorAll('div')[1]?.style.height, '31px');
The third div should have a height of 22 pixels.
assert.strictEqual(document.querySelectorAll('div')[2]?.style.height, '22px');
The fourth div should have a height of 17 pixels.
assert.strictEqual(document.querySelectorAll('div')[3]?.style.height, '17px');
The fifth div should have a height of 25 pixels.
assert.strictEqual(document.querySelectorAll('div')[4]?.style.height, '25px');
The sixth div should have a height of 18 pixels.
assert.strictEqual(document.querySelectorAll('div')[5]?.style.height, '18px');
The seventh div should have a height of 29 pixels.
assert.strictEqual(document.querySelectorAll('div')[6]?.style.height, '29px');
The eighth div should have a height of 14 pixels.
assert.strictEqual(document.querySelectorAll('div')[7]?.style.height, '14px');
The ninth div should have a height of 9 pixels.
assert.strictEqual(document.querySelectorAll('div')[8]?.style.height, '9px');
