Definition--Measures of Central Tendency--Histogram	Histogram Topic Statistics Definition A histogram is a graphical representation of data distribution using bars of different heights. Description Histograms are used to visualize the frequency distribution of continuous data, making it easier to identify patterns and trends. They are widely used in fields such as economics, biology, and engineering to analyze data distributions and detect anomalies. In mathematics, histograms are essential for understanding probability distributions and statistical inference.	Data Analysis

Definition--Statistics and Probability Concepts--Histogram	Histogram Topic Statistics and Probability Definition A histogram is a graphical representation of data distribution using bars of different heights. Description Histograms are a fundamental tool in statistics for visualizing the frequency distribution of a dataset. They are used across various fields, including economics, biology, and engineering, to analyze data patterns and trends. By displaying data in intervals, histograms help identify the shape, central tendency, and variability of data. For students, understanding histograms is crucial for interpreting data visually and making informed decisions based on statistical evidence.	Data Analysis
