How to create a histogram in R? And what information that we can get from histogram?
Histogram shows a frequency distribution. It is a great graph for showing the mode, the spread, and the symmetry (skewness) of your data. Here is a histogram of 1,000 random points drawn from a normal distribution with a mean of 2.5
Of course I don’t like option number 4 and would replace it with something else (column/bar charts, Cleveland dot plots, or stacked column/bar depending on what you’re trying to observe). But this is a good way of thinking about how you can visualize a variable.
