There are ways to plot histograms in Sage, but this is a weekness in Sage.


Just out of curiosity how did you search?   For example, you could go
to http://sagemath.org/ and type "histogram" in the box in the upper
right corner does yield some results, e.g.,

http://sagemath.org/doc/reference/sage/finance/time_series.html?highlight=histogram#sage.finance.time_series.TimeSeries.plot_histogram

I am sure that the question was addressed here before but... Is it possible to plot an histogram from a Numpy array in Sage (ideally in the notebook)

You could do

sage: import numpy
sage: v = numpy.array([1..10])
sage: stats.TimeSeries(v).plot_histogram()

Do

sage: t = stats.TimeSeries(v)
sage: t.plot_histogram?

to see options for dividing your data into bins, etc.


By the way, I would *REALLY* like to see the following implemented in Sage:

sage: histogram(...)

I.e., a function called "histogram" with options/semantics that are
very close to the ones here:

http://reference.wolfram.com/mathematica/Histograms/ref/Histogram.html

Who wants to do it?

Please see http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/9671 for a patch for a histogram command.

Hey Jason, I have just import this ticket and it makes a very nice job! As soon as I finish to read the developer guide I will try to send you some feedback! There are a couple of arguments necessary for that function!


Thanks for your help!
