A tooltip shows more information about an item on a page when the user hovers over that item. There are several ways to add a tooltip to a visualization, this challenge uses the SVG `title` element.
`title` pairs with the `text()` method to dynamically add data to the bars.
# --instructions--
Append a `title` element under each `rect` node. Then call the `text()` method with a callback function so the text displays the data value.
# --hints--
Your code should have 9 `title` elements.
```js
assert($('title').length == 9);
```
