[Numpy-discussion] Producing a Histogram When Bins Are Known

[Wayne Watson]

I tried this and it put ranges on y from 0 to 0.45 and x from 5 to 50.

import numpy as np
import pylab

v = np.array([20, 15,10,30, 50, 30, 20, 25, 10])
#Plot a normalized histogram
print np.linspace(0,50,10)
pylab.hist(v, normed=1, bins=np.linspace(0,9,10), range=(0,100))
pylab.show()

I  added the two imports. I got a fig error on the first line.
import pylab
import numpy

Shouldn't there by a pylab.Show in there?

ax = fig.add_subplot(1,1,1)
pylab.title(r'\Large  BCG NO radio distribution $ \rm{TITLE}$')
n, bins, patches = pylab.hist(values, bins=math.sqrt(len(values)), 
range=(numpy.mean(values)-3*scientificstat.standardDeviation(values),numpy.mean(values)+3*scientificstat.standardDeviation(values)), 
normed=1, facecolor='y', alpha=0.5)
ax.set_xlabel(r'\Large$ \rm{values}$')
ax.set_ylabel(r'\Large Delatavalue/Value')

gausx=numpy.arange(numpy.mean(Value)-3*scientificstat.standardDeviation(Value),numpy.mean(Value)+3*scientificstat.standardDeviation(bpty_plt),0.1)
gaus=normpdf(gausx,numpy.mean(Value),scientificstat.standardDeviation(Value))
pylab.plot(gausx,gaus, color='red', lw=2)
ax.set_xlim(-1.5, 1.5)
ax.grid(True)
