pandas.DataFrame.hist

DataFrame.hist(data, column=None, by=None, grid=True, xlabelsize=None, xrot=None, ylabelsize=None, yrot=None, ax=None, sharex=False, sharey=False, figsize=None, layout=None, bins=10, **kwds)[source]

Draw histogram of the DataFrame’s series using matplotlib / pylab.

Parameters:

data : DataFrame

column : string or sequence

If passed, will be used to limit data to a subset of columns

by : object, optional

If passed, then used to form histograms for separate groups

grid : boolean, default True

Whether to show axis grid lines

xlabelsize : int, default None

If specified changes the x-axis label size

xrot : float, default None

rotation of x axis labels

ylabelsize : int, default None

If specified changes the y-axis label size

yrot : float, default None

rotation of y axis labels

ax : matplotlib axes object, default None

sharex : boolean, default True if ax is None else False

In case subplots=True, share x axis and set some x axis labels to invisible; defaults to True if ax is None otherwise False if an ax is passed in; Be aware, that passing in both an ax and sharex=True will alter all x axis labels for all subplots in a figure!

sharey : boolean, default False

In case subplots=True, share y axis and set some y axis labels to invisible

figsize : tuple

The size of the figure to create in inches by default

layout: (optional) a tuple (rows, columns) for the layout of the histograms

bins: integer, default 10

Number of histogram bins to be used

kwds : other plotting keyword arguments
