It's also easier to debug code if you store objects in variables. What if 
histogram is created with a bug, how would you diagnose it? If you have the 
histogram stored in a variable, you can put a breakpoint after the assignment 
and inspect the histogram, but your example doesn't provide a variable to 
inspect.
