Histograms with a configurable number of floating point buckets, and a terminal-friendly
Display.
This crate provides a Histogram type that allows configuration of the number
of buckets with size in floating point that will be used, regardless of the range of input samples. This is useful when displaying a Histogram (for example, when printing it to a
terminal) but it sacrifices fancy tracking of precision and significant figures.
It uses O(n) memory.
extern crate histo_fp;
use histo_fp::Histogram;
// Create a histogram that will have 10 buckets.
let mut histogram = Histogram::with_buckets(10, None);
// Adds some samples to the histogram.
for sample in 0..100 {
histogram.add(sample as f64);
histogram.add((sample * sample) as f64);
}
// Iterate over buckets and do stuff with their range and count.
for bucket in histogram.buckets() {
do_stuff(bucket.start(), bucket.end(), bucket.count());
}
// And you can also `Display` a histogram!
println!("{}", histogram);
// Prints:
//
// ```
// # Number of samples = 200
// # Min = 0
// # Max = 9801
// #
// # Mean = 1666.5000000000005
// # Standard deviation = 2641.2281518263426
// # Variance = 6976086.1499999985
