> A histogram() UDAF to generate an approximate histogram of a numerical (byte, 
> short, double, long, etc.) column. The result is returned as a map of (x,y) 
> histogram pairs, and can be plotted in Gnuplot using impulses (for example). 
> The algorithm is currently adapted from "A streaming parallel decision tree 
> algorithm" by Ben-Haim and Tom-Tov, JMLR 11 (2010), and uses space 
> proportional to the number of histogram bins specified. It has no 
> approximation guarantees, but seems to work well when there is a lot of data 
> and a large number (e.g. 50-100) of histogram bins specified.
> A typical call might be:
> SELECT histogram(val, 10) FROM some_table;
> where the result would be a histogram with 10 bins, returned as a Hive map 
> object.
