# --description--
The previous challenges covered how to display data from an array and how to add CSS classes. You can combine these lessons to create a simple bar chart. There are two steps to this:
1) Create a `div` for each data point in the array
2) Give each `div` a dynamic height, using a callback function in the `style()` method that sets height equal to the data value
Recall the format to set a style using a callback function:
`selection.style("cssProperty", (d) => d)`
# --instructions--
Add the `style()` method to the code in the editor to set the `height` property for each element. Use a callback function to return the value of the data point with the string "px" added to it.
# --hints--
The first `div` should have a `height` of 12 pixels.
```js
assert($('div').eq(0)[0].style.height === '12px');
```
The second `div` should have a `height` of 31 pixels.
```js
assert($('div').eq(1)[0].style.height === '31px');
```
The third `div` should have a `height` of 22 pixels.
```js
assert($('div').eq(2)[0].style.height === '22px');
```
The fourth `div` should have a `height` of 17 pixels.
```js
assert($('div').eq(3)[0].style.height === '17px');
```
The fifth `div` should have a `height` of 25 pixels.
```js
assert($('div').eq(4)[0].style.height === '25px');
```
The sixth `div` should have a `height` of 18 pixels.
```js
assert($('div').eq(5)[0].style.height === '18px');
```
The seventh `div` should have a `height` of 29 pixels.
```js
assert($('div').eq(6)[0].style.height === '29px');
```
The eighth `div` should have a `height` of 14 pixels.
```js
assert($('div').eq(7)[0].style.height === '14px');
```
The ninth `div` should have a `height` of 9 pixels.
```js
assert($('div').eq(8)[0].style.height === '9px');
```
