Dual axes in v5
license: gpl-3.0

This is a multiple line graph demonstrating the display of seperate colour coded y axes for each line. This was written using d3.js v4 and is a follow on to the multiple line graph example here.

This graph is part of the code samples for the update to the book D3 Tips and Tricks to version 4 of d3.js.
