histogramn.

Brit.

/ˈhɪstəɡram/, U.S.

/ˈhɪstəˌɡræm/

Origin: A borrowing from Greek, combined with an English element. Etymons: Greek ἱστός , -gram comb. form.

Etymology: < ancient Greek ἱστός mast, web (see histo- comb. form) + -gram comb. form.Quot. 1891 is taken from a syllabus of lectures on the geometrical representation of statistics given by Karl Pearson at Gresham College, London, in November 1891.

Statistics.

A diagram consisting of a number of adjacent vertical rectangles whose area is proportional to the frequency of a variable and whose width is proportional to the class interval.Histograms are often constructed using constant class intervals, in which case the height of each rectangle is proportional to the frequency of the variable (as in a bar chart).
