plotting the histogram of data points

Question

0 个投票

please consider this sample code:

 figure
 data = [0,2,9,2,5,8,7,3,1,9,4,3,5,8,10,0,1,2,9,5,10];
 hist(data)

Why this histogram plots the data points 0 & 1 with frequency 4 (on Y-axis),when in fact 0 & 1 appear two times in data.

data = [0,2,9,2,5,8,7,3,1,9,4,3,5,8,10,0,1,2,9,5,10];
d=unique(data)
y= histc(data,d) 
bar(d,y)

Look at

help hist

N = hist(Y) bins the elements of Y into 10 equally spaced containers and returns the number of elements in each container

help histc

You have 11 different values (0 through 10) but only 10 bins (default number to use if you do not specify the number in a hist() call).
