title: Line Chart d3 js-- x axis months
body: <p>I'm trying to do a simple line graph that has months Jan - Dec in the x axis and number of assignments posted on my company's website for the y. I'm having a bit of trouble mapping the y domain... and basically understanding how this api is supposed to work. I find plenty of examples with parsing for date, or a numerical value x axis, but I can't seem to get it right with months. </p>
  
  <p>I've been tweaking with this code for so long, I'm not even sure what I'm looking at. </p>
  
  <p>Any help is greatly appreciated for a young noob. </p>

  <p>my styling looks like: </p>
  
  <pre><code>.axis path,
  .axis line {
    fill: none;
    stroke: #000;
    shape-rendering: crispEdges;
  }
  
  .axis text {
    font: 10px sans-serif;
  }
  
  .line {
    fill: none;
    stroke: steelblue;
    stroke-width: 1.5px;
  }
  </code></pre>
