plotting the histogram of data points
Show older comments
please consider this sample code:
figure
data = [0,2,9,2,5,8,7,3,1,9,4,3,5,8,10,0,1,2,9,5,10];
hist(data)
Why this histogram plots the data points 0 & 1 with frequency 4 (on Y-axis),when in fact 0 & 1 appear two times in data.

You have 11 different values (0 through 10) but only 10 bins (default number to use if you do not specify the number in a hist() call).
