## Description
< section id = 'description' >
Using a lot of inline styles on HTML elements gets hard to manage, even for smaller apps. It's easier to add a class to elements and style that class one time using CSS rules. D3 has the < code > attr()< / code > method to add any HTML attribute to an element, including a class name.
The < code > attr()< / code > method works the same way that < code > style()< / code > does. It takes comma-separated values, and can use a callback function. Here's an example to add a class of "container" to a selection:
< code > selection.attr("class", "container");< / code >
< / section >
## Instructions
< section id = 'instructions' >
Add the < code > attr()< / code > method to the code in the editor and put a class of < code > bar< / code > on the < code > div< / code > elements.

- text: Your code should use the < code > attr()</ code > method.
