A quick guide to show how to multi-load files by D3.js v4.
d3.queue()
.defer(d3.csv, "file1.csv")
.defer(d3.csv, "file2.csv")
.await(function(error, data1, data2) {
if (error) throw error;
...
});Really straightforward.

Hi what if you had hundreds of csv files to load? If there a way to add a loop inside the defer call? Thanks.
Sorry, I have no idea about the answer to your question. I haven't done this kind of loop CSV loading before, and I haven't used D3 for so long a time.
