Fabian Hueske commented on FLINK-1096:
--------------------------------------
I agree. I would also expect the count instead of the sum.
+1 for changing this.
Does it make sense to make the Histogram more generic and support all
comparable data types?

> The {{Histogram}} accumulator uses the given value as both key and value for
> the histogram map. Hence, the histogram always contains entries like {{key ->
> n * key}} where {{n}} is the number of times that {{key}} has been added to
> the histogram.
> Supposedly, adding {{key}} into the histogram {{n}} times should create the
> entr {{key -> n}} instead.
