A histogram groups numeric observations into intervals and shows how often values fall in each interval. It helps you see clusters, skew, spread and gaps that are difficult to spot in a spreadsheet.
Unlike a bar chart for separate categories, a histogram uses numeric intervals along the horizontal axis. Choose bin settings that suit your reader, because a different bin width can reveal a different pattern.
Start with observations
Paste a column of measurements, scores or response times, or import a CSV or text file.
Choose meaningful intervals
Use an automatic rule, specify a bin count, or enter a fixed width in your data’s units.
Verify before exporting
Inspect interval boundaries, counts, percentages and densities alongside the chart.
