Animated age pyramid
From JSXGraph Wiki
This animation shows data from the 12th coordinated Population Projection from the "Statistisches Bundesamt (destatis)".
How to create this animation
- Download the data from destatis.de
- Save the table which should be displayed as csv file.
- Transform the csv file into a JavaScript file containing a 2 dimensional array:
dataV1W1EJ = [["2009"," ","m"," 40 070 "," 341 "," 350 "," 353 "," 348 ",...," 2 "],
[" "," ","w"," 41 665 "," 323 "," 333 "," 335 "," 329 ",...," 12 "],
[" "," ","i"," 81 735 "," 663 "," 683 "," 688 "," 677 ",...," 13 "],
["2010"," ","m"," 39 987 "," 339 "," 341 "," 350 "," 353 ",...," 2 "],
.
.
.
[" "," ","i"," 64 651 "," 465 "," 470 "," 476 "," 481 ",...," 169 "]];
Every third row labeled by 'i' in the third column will be deleted later on.
- Now read the data
function readFile(dataArr) {
var len = dataArr.length,
i, male, female, y,
data = [];
for (i=len-1;i>=0;i--) {
if (i%3==2) {
dataArr.splice(i,1);
} else {
if (i%3==1) {
female = dataArr[i][3].replace(/ /g,'')*1;
} else if (i%3==0) {
y = dataArr[i][0]*1;
male = dataArr[i][3].replace(/ /g,'')*1;
data.push([y,male,female]);
}
dataArr[i].splice(0,4); // year,'',m/w,no,
}
}
data.reverse();
ages = JXG.Math.transpose(dataArr);
return {matrix:ages, total: data};
};
var stat1 = readFile(dataV1W1EJ);
- Create the filled rectangles (men, women)
brd = JXG.JSXGraph.initBoard('jxgbox', {boundingbox:[-850,110,850,-10],axis:false});
