HISTOGRAM(Array, BinRange, NewTableFlag)

  • where, is an array of data or reference to cells containing data to analyze
  • is the set of intervals to create an Histogram
  • is a logical value that decides whether to display the output in the same worksheet or a new space cube.

HISTOGRAM() counts the number of occurrences of each data point in each of several data bins.

Description

HISTOGRAM(Array, BinRange, NewTableFlag)

  • An Histogram is a representation of tabulated frequencies over discrete bins(intervals).
  • HISTOGRAM() performs data analysis in an array depending on the intervals, and returns a column chart that displays frequency data.
  • can be array of numbers to analyze using HISTOGRAM() function.
  • is the range of intervals in which data in array is counted. A data is included in particular bin range if the number is greater than lowest range and equal to or less than largest range.
  • can be a logical value TRUE or FALSE. If omitted, Calci assumes it to be FALSE.
  • If is TRUE, the result is displayed on new zspace sheet.

Need to check the functionality of NewTableFlag.

  • Currently, for TRUE, result table in Calci shows (both on new zspace)
    • Bin, Frequency columns and
    • two more columns showing Bin and Frequency in descending order
  • For FALSE, Calci displays only Bin and Frequency columns.

Examples

Consider the following table in Calci, with Columns A and B as array inputs for HISTOGRAM() function.

Array Bin Range
1 10
7 20
12 30
17 40
20 50
37
50
=HISTOGRAM(A3:A9, B3:B7, TRUE) returns the following table:

Histogram
Bin Frequency
10 2
20 3
30 0
40 1
50 1
More 0
