Hello, two days ago Sebastian helped me to finish in a hurry a histogram with bar()
I would like now to understand how to make the plot with hist() First of all, my data (after a massage) looks like : ----------------------------------------- 0.00e+00 1.00e-04 81039 1.00e-04 2.00e-04 4472 2.00e-04 3.00e-04 2033 3.00e-04 4.00e-04 1155 4.00e-04 5.00e-04 823 5.00e-04 6.00e-04 643 6.00e-04 7.00e-04 534 7.00e-04 8.00e-04 361 8.00e-04 9.00e-04 313 9.00e-04 1.00e-03 269 1.00e-03 1.10e-03 230 1.10e-03 1.20e-03 195 1.20e-03 1.30e-03 178 1.30e-03 1.40e-03 165 1.40e-03 1.50e-03 175 1.50e-03 1.60e-03 125 1.60e-03 1.70e-03 109 1.70e-03 1.80e-03 112 1.80e-03 1.90e-03 90 . . . . 9.86e-02 9.87e-02 0 9.87e-02 9.88e-02 0 9.88e-02 9.89e-02 0 9.89e-02 9.90e-02 0 9.90e-02 9.91e-02 0 9.91e-02 9.92e-02 0 9.92e-02 9.93e-02 0 9.93e-02 9.94e-02 0 9.94e-02 9.95e-02 0 9.95e-02 9.96e-02 1 ----------------------------------------- The bins are given by the two first number columns. For instance, the first bin is from 0.00e+00 to 1.00e-04 and has the number of data 81039 Then I run the following script on them: ---------------------------------------------- #!/usr/bin/env python from pylab import * H = load ( './histo3.dat') h = H[:, 2] # the third column n, bins, patches = hist(h, 997, normed=0, log=0, facecolor='lightblue', alpha=0.75) show() ---------------------------------------------- The number 997 is because this is the number of lines I have in my file (and, thus, the number of bins) But the plot is ranging between 0 - 90000 --> on x axis 0 - 1000 --> on y axis Notice in the data file that x does not get further than 9.96e-02 So the maximum should be 0.0996 and I am getting 90000 Why is that? What am I doing wrong? I have tried to substitute lower-case e with E in the data file but this did not help Any help would be appreciated. thanks, Pau ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge This is your chance to win up to $100,000 in prizes!
