Medals per Country Table
This visualization creates a simple table showing the countries sorted by the total number of medals. However, it is written in a way that makes it easy to adapt it to sort the countries by medals in a specific discipline. USA has the most medals overall, but what if you instead look at road and track cycling? Or perhaps Circket, which was at Olympic games only in 1900 with exactly one match?
If you want to adapt the table to show different disciplines, you can just use the "options" user interface. The first control lets you choose one or more disciplines that you are interested in. You can also filter the table in a number of different ways, but for that you'll need to modify the source code on the "source" tab.
For example, if you want to see the results for specific Olympic games, you can change the second line
of the source code to filter data by games
. For London 2012 games, the code would be
olympics.'by games'.'London (2012)'.then.data
. Once you do this, new option in the
"options" tab appears letting you choose another games.
