Just omit plot(bins) from your script. The hist function (in pylab) already draws the histogram, and plot(bins) adds the extra line. Use numpy.histogram if you just want to compute the histogram. The docstring of hist says "Compute the histogram of *x*", which is misleading because it draws the histogram. I'll fix the docstring. -- Jouni K.
