How to Read Histograms and Use Them in R
By Nathan Yau
The chart type often goes overlooked because people don’t understand them. Maybe this will help.
The histogram is one of my favorite chart types, and for analysis purposes, I probably use them the most. Devised by Karl Pearson (the father of mathematical statistics) in the late 1800s, it’s simple geometrically, robust, and allows you to see the distribution of a dataset.
If you don’t understand what’s driving the chart though, it can be confusing, which is probably why you don’t see it often in general publications.
