#' precedes before triggering the appearance of each bar. Defaults to 100.
#' @param fill The color of the bars. Defaults to 'crimson'.
#' @param xFontSize the font size of the x-axis labels. Defaults to 10.
#' @param yFontSize the font size of the y-axis labels. Defaults to 10.
#' @param xticks Optional. the number of x-axis ticks to consider.
#' @param yticks Optional. The number of y-axis ticks to consider.
