google.visualization.Histogram

Definition

A histogram is a chart that groups numeric data into bins, displaying the bins as segmented columns. They're used to depict the distribution of a dataset: how often values fall into ranges. Google Charts automatically chooses the number of bins for you. All bins are equal width and have a height proportional to the number of data points in the bin. In other respects, histograms are similar to column charts. (see the doc of Google)

Data format

There are two ways to populate a histogram datatable. When there's only one series:
