Hi all, I am trying to produce a weighted histogram. The help text for "hist" here: http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/api/pyplot_api.html#matplotlib.pyplot.hist has a mention of adding weights, but it is not noted in the command line section where this should appear.
Calling: hist(data,20,data_weights) gives the error: File "/usr/local/python-2.5.2/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/pyplot.py", line 1868, in hist ret = gca().hist(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/local/python-2.5.2/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/axes.py", line 6236, in hist normed=bool(normed), new=True) File "/usr/local/python-2.5.2/lib/python2.5/site-packages/numpy/lib/function_base.py", line 353, in histogram mn, mx = range ValueError: too many values to unpack Calling: hist(data,20,weights=data_weights) gives the error: File "/usr/local/python-2.5.2/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/pyplot.py", line 1868, in hist ret = gca().hist(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/local/python-2.5.2/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/axes.py", line 6371, in hist p.update(kwargs) File "/usr/local/python-2.5.2/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/artist.py", line 453, in update raise AttributeError('Unknown property %s'%k) AttributeError: Unknown property weights There's no indication in the help text of where or how to insert the weights array.
