 # Histogram
 
-What is a histogram?
+**What is a histogram?**
 
-The visual representation that charts the frequency distribution of variables in a data set.
-A frequency distribution shows the regularity of an occurrence of a value in a set of data.
-Often confused with a bar chart, although there are certain defining characteristics of differentiation.
-* The x-axis consists of equal width bars without space in between, known as bins or buckets that represent a range of classes.
-* x axis is the class interval and is labelled with a number rather than a description.
-* The y axis represents the frequency of occurrence of a value.

-In statistics to show the frequency of a specific value within a certain range.

 ## Misc.
-I have included both uniform and gaussian (normal) distribution data files.
-Gnuplot or some equivelant application is required to graph the histogram data.

+* I find `gnuplot` then `plot 'dist3.dat' using 1:2 smooth freq w boxes` works well (see png file for sample output).
