HistogramHistogramFunction: hist

n = hist(Y) bins the elements in vector Y into 10 equally spaced containers.

Histogramti- options

n = hist(Y, nbins)( , )where nbins is a scalar, uses nbins number of bins.Hist(Y, 100) gives;

Histogramti- options

n = hist(Y,x) where x is vector( , )returns the distribution of Y among length(x) bins with centers specified by x.hi t( b) h b 10 0 1 10 ( t f 10 10 1 9 9hist(a, b) where b = -10:0.1:10 (vector of -10, -10.1,…,9.9, 10) gives;

� How to make a scatterplot (plot)p (p )

ScatterplotScatterplotFunction: plot (default gives simple line chart)p ( g p )

plot(Y) plots the columns of Y versus the index of each value when Y is a real number.

Scatterplotti- options

Instead of using index, you can have one more vector g , ywith same length to set it as value of another axis.

Scatterplotti- options

Format of data points can also be changedp gplot(X1,Y1,…Xn, Yn, LineSpec)
