Automatic Histogram Generation: New in Mathematica 7

Automatic Histogram Generation

Integrated with Mathematica 7's new dynamic charting graphics, Mathematica 7 adds built-in capabilities for generating 2D and 3D histograms for ordinary and logarithmic probability distributions of lists of data, with state-of-the-art binning and scaling optimization.

2D and 3D histograms from single or multiple datasets. »
Automatic optimization of bin sizes using state-of-the-art algorithms.
Binning control based on bin counts, widths or explicit ranges.
Support for scaling based on counts, probability or probability density.
Support for arbitrary binning and scaling functions.
Support for logarithmic bin heights and bin widths.
Integrated support for all Mathematica 7 charting features.
Arbitrary styling, labeling and legending of datasets, etc. »
Tooltips and other annotations providing details and drilldown. »
Support for histogram bars formed from pictorial elements in 2D and 3D. »
Stacked and overlapped layouts for multiple datasets. »
