Histogram

Japanese: ヒストグラム(英語表記)histogram
Histogram
Also known as a histogram. A graph with rectangular columns. Often used to illustrate frequency distribution, the range of measured values ​​is divided into several intervals, and the frequency of measured values ​​falling into each interval is plotted on the vertical axis, while the measured values ​​divided into intervals are plotted on the horizontal axis, with rectangular columns lined up. This type of graph is highly useful when organizing a large amount of data because it has the following advantages: (1) it clearly shows the distribution state, (2) it clearly shows the presence of outliers, (3) it is convenient for comparing with standards, and (4) it is easy to compare several distributions.
