histogram - draw a histogram histogram [ -h ] [ -c index ] [ -r minx,miny,maxx,maxy ] [ -s scale ] [ -t title ] [ -v maxv ] Histogram reads numbers, one per line, from its standard input and draws them as bars in a histogram.

Use -c to set the color index for the graph. A modulus operation on the value keeps the color index within the available range.

Unless -h ( hold ) is given, histogram will exit when it reaches the end-of-file. It will exit immediately if it is interrupted or if the exit menu option is chosen.

-r sets the initial window rectangle coordinates.

-s sets the scaling factor.

-t sets the title displayed on a line above the histogram. The last value read is displayed to the right of the title.

-v sets the maximum value that can be expected.

Plot a sine wave: .EX hoc -e 'for(i=0.0;i<20*PI;i=i+0.1) print (10+10*sin(i)), "\\n"'| histogram -t 'sin(t), 0 ≤ t ≤ 20π' -v 20 -h
