If you used column labels on the worksheet, you can include them in the cell references. In the Bin Range box, enter the cell reference for the range that has the bin numbers.
In the Input Range box, enter the cell reference for the data range that has the input numbers. If you don't enter any bin numbers, the Histogram tool will create evenly distributed bin intervals by using the minimum and maximum values in the input range as start and end points. It’s a good idea to use your own bin numbers because they may be more useful for your analysis. In the next column, type the bin numbers in ascending order, adding a label in the first cell if you want. The Histogram tool won’t work with qualitative numeric data, like identification numbers entered as text. On a worksheet, type the input data in one column, adding a label in the first cell if you want.īe sure to use quantitative numeric data, like item amounts or test scores.
