HistogramCategories

As of Version 7.0, HistogramCategories has been superseded by an optional argument hspec for the built-in Wolfram Language function Histogram.

HistogramCategories

is an option of histogram functions that specifies the categories in the histogram.

Details and Options

To use HistogramCategories, you first need to load the Histograms Package using Needs["Histograms`"].
With HistogramCategories->Automatic, the categories are chosen to be intervals of equal width. The number of categories is chosen automatically.
HistogramCategories->n specifies that n equally sized categories should be used.
HistogramCategories->{m,n} specified that an m×n grid of categories should be used for Histogram3D.
HistogramCategories->{c₁,c₂,…,c_n} uses categories {c₁≤x<c₂,…,c_n-1≤x<c_n}.
HistogramCategories->{{c₁,…,c_n},{d₁,…,dl}} specifies unequally sized categories in Histogram3D.

Automatically choose categories by default:

Use five equally sized categories:

With ApproximateIntervals->True, the number of categories depends on the range of values:

Use a specific list of categories:
