For example, how much money you spend in a month on subscription services, what means of transit you take to get to school depending on cost and time available and weather conditions, some design deck calculation where you're trying to figure out how big images in a grid should be depending on rows/columns and margins, etc... Be creative, and try to use at least a few different kinds of inputs to get practice! - Take a look at the GIF image below which shows the most ID of all things: a 2x2 diagram! In the same notebook, attempt to loosely recreate it with Observable inputs and the SVG code we wrote in our first procedural artist exercise, or the Javascript code we learned last week while creating the "Hello World" map. Either approach is fine, though the javascript approach would offer more future-looking learnings. Note how not only is the green circle placeable with Observable inputs like a standard 2x2, but many other aspects of the visualization are configurable such as font size, colors, stroke widths, etc. Make as many inputs as you like to control your visualization, feel free to make it more interesting looking aesthetically, and consider making it plot something relevant to you! Small tip: some attributes might be helpful for aligning text such as the `text-anchor` and `dominant-baseline` attributes, which change what the `x` and `y` attributes mean for text elements. Normally, the coordinates refer to the bottom-left of the text-box, but you can change that! You can see these in action in the Pythagoras calculator code above, but try to find some documentation online too!33:T402,{ const height = 200; const svg = d3.create("svg").attr("width", width).attr("height", 200); svg .append("rect") .attr("width", width) .attr("height", height) .attr("fill", backgroundColor); svg .append("line") .attr("x1", margin) .attr("y1", margin) .attr("x2", width - margin) .attr("y2", height - margin) .attr("stroke", "white") .attr("stroke-width", strokeWidth); svg .append("text") .attr("x", width / 2) .attr("y", margin) .attr("fill", "white") .text("Example Text") .attr("dominant-baseline", "middle") .attr("text-anchor", "start") .attr("font-family", fontFamily) .attr("font-size", 18); svg .append("circle") //remember that x is a percentage slider above .attr("cx", x * width) //and y is a pixel value, so no additional calculation needed .attr("cy", y) .attr("r", 15) .attr("stroke", "white") .attr("fill", circleColor) .attr("stroke-width", strokeWidth); return svg.node(); }34:[{"id":"d6a0a34e0d7972166990b414adbfd84f46fb69f66051b5048160024065a800c239ccaef8bd9d630a03f2c870a957a4fab59b70463921fc58a1c46c0426dd97e3","href":"https://static.observableusercontent.com/files/d6a0a34e0d7972166990b414adbfd84f46fb69f66051b5048160024065a800c239ccaef8bd9d630a03f2c870a957a4fab59b70463921fc58a1c46c0426dd97e3","name":"Sep-15-2024 12-39-25.gif","type":"image/gif","lastModified":1726422064838.907,"size":821774}] 2f:{"id":"defe87343a8c3764","slug":"data-capture-and-interactivity","title":"Week 4: Data Capture and Interactivity","thumbnail":"9abab7d7c7a68ed98583aeb81013fb11e26573a7f6dfe1efbc0c72b10f039806","access_level":"public","create_time":"$D2024-09-04T17:30:03.063Z","update_time":"$D2025-09-11T13:41:28.928Z","view_time":null,"first_public_time":"$D2024-09-15T17:44:52.895Z","fork":false,"stars":0,"starred":false,"owner":{"type":"team","id":"e13322fbaa35cc24","login":"zachpino","name":"Zach Pino","avatar_url":"https://avatars-next.observableusercontent.com/f70bf2a8b5c385b3d78c000b2635e8f37388d805fbc2986968496928347bc0e1","tier":"starter_2024"},"version":1242,"publish_version":null,"role":null,"authored":false,"authors":[{"type":"individual","id":"90c59c5f3ef39e0a","login":"zachpino","name":"Zach Pino","avatar_url":"https://avatars-next.observableusercontent.com/f70bf2a8b5c385b3d78c000b2635e8f37388d805fbc2986968496928347bc0e1","tier":null}],"members":[{"type":"individual","id":"90c59c5f3ef39e0a","login":"zachpino","name":"Zach Pino","avatar_url":"https://avatars-next.observableusercontent.com/f70bf2a8b5c385b3d78c000b2635e8f37388d805fbc2986968496928347bc0e1","tier":null,"role":"editor"},{"type":"team","id":"e13322fbaa35cc24","login":"zachpino","name":"Zach Pino","avatar_url":"https://avatars-next.observableusercontent.com/f70bf2a8b5c385b3d78c000b2635e8f37388d805fbc2986968496928347bc0e1","tier":"starter_2024","role":"viewer"}],"comments":[],"custom_thumbnail":true,"trashed":false,"subscribed":null,"forks":1,"collection":{"id":"3babe74cb5d25861","slug":"id-iit-fall-2024-communication-systems-workshop","title":"F24 Communication Systems: Data Viz","owner":{"id":"e13322fbaa35cc24","login":"zachpino","name":"Zach Pino"}},"type":"notebook","body":{"title":"Week 4: Data Capture and Interactivity","cells":[{"id":0,"value":"# Week 4: Data Capture and Interactivity","pinned":false,"hidden":false,"mode":"md","author":"$undefined","summary":"$undefined","output":"","database":"$undefined"},{"id":5,"value":"We have discussed several opportunities so far in class for data visualizers to actively participate in producing better datasets, cultivating data literacy, and aligning personal data experiences with collective data narratives.
