# pygram11.histogram2d¶

pygram11.histogram2d(x, y, bins=10, range=None, weights=None, flow=False)[source]

Histogram data in two dimensions.

This function provides an API very simiar to numpy.histogram2d(). Keep in mind that the returns are different.

Parameters
• x (array_like) – Array representing the x coordinate of the data to histogram.

• y (array_like) – Array representing the y coordinate of the data to histogram.

• bins (int or array_like or [int, int] or [array, array], optional) –

The bin specification:
• If int, the number of bins for the two dimensions (nx = ny = bins).

• If array_like, the bin edges for the two dimensions (x_edges = y_edges = bins).

• If [int, int], the number of bins in each dimension (nx, ny = bins).

• If [array_like, array_like], the bin edges in each dimension (x_edges, y_edges = bins).

• range (array_like, shape(2,2), optional) – The edges of this histogram along each dimension. If bins is not integral, then this parameter is ignored. If None, the default is [[x.min(), x.max()], [y.min(), y.max()]].

• weights (array_like) – An array of weights associated to each element $$(x_i, y_i)$$ pair. Each pair of the data will contribute its associated weight to the bin count.

• flow (bool) – Include over/underflow.

Raises
• ValueError – If x and y have different shape or either bin edge definition is not monotonically increasing.

• ValueError – If the shape of weights is not compatible with x and y.

• TypeError – If x, y, or weights are unsupported types

fix2d

Used for no weight or single weight fixed bin width histograms

var2d
