Barbell Chart
license: gpl-3.0

A scatter chart comparing two variables at each point along the x-axis. A connector line between the circles indicates that the two variables are related (e.g. male and female). As with other bubble charts, each circle can encode four data attributes: (1) horizontal position, (2) vertical position, (3) size, and (4) color.
