Example code from Wikipedia:
// Data
var countriesData = [
{ name:"Ireland", income:53000, life: 78, pop:6378, color: "black"},
{ name:"Norway", income:73000, life: 87, pop:5084, color: "blue" },
{ name:"Tanzania", income:27000, life: 50, pop:3407, color: "grey" }
];
// Create SVG container
var svg = d3.select("#hook").append("svg")
.attr("width", 120)
.attr("height", 120)
.style("background-color", "#D0D0D0");
// Create SVG elements from data
svg.selectAll("circle") // create virtual circle template
.data(countriesData) // bind data
.enter() // for each row in data...
.append("circle") // bind circle & data row such that...
.attr("id", function(d) { return d.name }) // set the circle's id according to the country name
.attr("cx", function(d) { return d.income / 1000 }) // set the circle's horizontal position according to income
.attr("cy", function(d) { return d.life }) // set the circle's vertical position according to life expectancy
.attr("r", function(d) { return d.pop / 1000 *2 }) // set the circle's radius according to country's population
.attr("fill", function(d) { return d.color }); // set the circle's color according to country's color
