What's a bin?

[edit]

What's a "bin"? Tesspub (talk) 07:38, 17 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

As far as i understand, it's an interval. Imagine making a histogram, each interval within which the quantity is counted is known as a bin. you could think of it like plotting data on an x-y scatter plot, and every value that falls in a certain x-interval is thrown in that bin to be averaged with the others in that bin.
