HIST2D Name
HIST2D Purpose
Compute a 2-d histogram for an array of points.
Category
Calling Sequence
h2d = hist2d( x, y) Inputs
x, y = 2-d point coordinates. in
Keyword Parameters
Keywords
MIN=mn set lower left corner of region to
histogram in (x,y) space. If x and y are
of type byte the default is 0. If MIN is not
given and type is not byte then the arrays are
searched for their min values. If MIN is a scalar
or 1 element array then that value is applied to both
x and y. To set both x and y minimums separately
send MIN as the d element array [xmin, ymin].
MAX=mx set upper right corner of region to
histogram in (x,y) space. If MAX is not given then
the arrays are searched for their max values. If MAX
is scalar or 1 element array that value is applied to
both x and y. To set both x and y maximums separately
send MAX as the 2 element array [xmax, ymax].
BIN=bn sets the histogram bin widths. If BIN is a
scalar or a single element array then it is applied
to both x and y. To set both x and y bins separately
send BIN as the 2 element array [xbin, ybin].
If BIN is not given then a value is chosen to give
roughly 200 bins in both x and y.
/LIST lists the x and y ranges and bin sizes used
to compute the 2-d histogram.
OUT=out Returned structure with x and y axes arrays
and x and y bin widths.
Outputs
h2d = The computed 2-d histogram of x and y. out
