Here is a little [tutorial on CDFs and PMFs](https://datasketches.apache.org/docs/QuantilesStudies/QuantilesStreamAStudy.html). It is on the website: - Click on Documentation - On the left ToC open Sketch Families - Open Quantiles and Histograms - Click on Classic Quantiles Sketches - At the top of the page click on Quantiles StreamA Study The beauty of using these quantile sketches for histogramming big data is: - You only scan the raw data once. - After that, you can query the sketch with a set of points that define the boundaries of your bins. The result is returned to you as two arrays of points. You choose your own plotting tool. If you don't like what you see, you can query the sketch again with a different set of points. Most histogram plotting software requires you to define your bins before you scan the raw data. These sketches allow you to play with your data in nearly real time. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
