## Description
<section id='description'>
The height of each bar can be set to the value of the data point in the array, similar to how the <code>x</code> value was set dynamically.
2019-05-14 05:04:05 -07:00
```js
selection.attr("property", (d, i) => {
/*
* d is the data point value
* i is the index of the data point in the array
*/
})
```

## Instructions
<section id='instructions'>
Change the callback function for the <code>height</code> attribute to return the data value times 3.
<strong>Note</strong><br>Remember that multiplying all data points by the same constant scales the data (like zooming in). It helps to see the differences between bar values in this example.
