Simple graph and table using d3.js
license: mit

This is a follow on from the simple d3.js graph used as an example in the book D3 Tips and Tricks.

It demonstrates the generation of an html table containing graphed data using d3.js. It should be taken in context with the text of the book which can be downloaded for free from Leanpub.
