Statistical Foundations

Histogram with Custom Bins


This week in GIS3015 we concentrated on basic statistics and graphing.  The histogram above (with trendline) demonstrates the use of custom "bins".  In this case, we are using a custom bin size of 20, which presents a neat appearance on the horizontal axis and a better distribution (in my opinion) of the stock data.  I've also edited the trendline axis on the right to remove a 120% increment (which doesn't make sense in this case) and cleaned up the labeling to only use whole numbers.
