pyrad.graph.plot_histogram(bin_edges, values, fname_list, labelx='bins', labely='Number of Samples', titl='histogram', binwidth_equal=False, dpi=72, labels=None, alpha=None)[source]#

Compute and plot one or several histograms.

Parameters:

  • bin_edges (array-like or list of array-like) – Histogram bin edges. If a single array is provided, it is used for all value arrays. If a list is provided, each entry is used for the corresponding value array.

  • values (array-like or list of array-like) – Data values. Can be a single array or a list of arrays to plot several distributions on the same axis.

  • fname_list (list of str) – List of filenames where the plot will be saved.

  • labelx (str, optional) – Label of the x-axis.

  • labely (str, optional) – Label of the y-axis.

  • titl (str, optional) – Figure title.

  • binwidth_equal (bool, optional) – If True, bars are plotted with equal visual width regardless of the actual bin size.

  • dpi (int, optional) – Dots per inch.

  • labels (list of str, optional) – Labels for each distribution. If provided, a legend is added.

  • alpha (float, optional) – Transparency of the histogram (only used for single distribution).

Returns:

fname_list (list of str) – List of filenames of the created plots.
