MATLAB: How can we define equally- ranged bins in histogram

bin edgesbin rangeshistogram

Hi, Thank you for responding my previous questions. I have a dataset containing values between 0 to 1. I want to plot a histogram for bin ranges 0:0.1:1, i.e. [0-0.1, 0.1-0.2, 0.2-0.3……0.9-1.0]. Can anybody help with this? Thank you in advance.

The easiest way is to use linspace, choose the minimum and maximum values, and select the vector length to be one more than the number of bins (here 10) to define the edges:

edges = linspace(0, 1, 11);

You can do this:

data = 0.1 * rand(1, 1000); % Create sample data.
edges = linspace(0, 1, 21); % Create 20 bins.
% Plot the histogram.
histogram(data, 'BinEdges',edges);
% Fancy up the graph.
grid on;
xlim([0, 1]);
xlabel('Data Value', 'FontSize', 14);
ylabel('Bin Count', 'FontSize', 14);
title('Histogram of Data', 'FontSize', 14);

Of course you will have only 2 bins for your data to fall into, so I don't know if that's what you want.
