That helped by using the original data of 256 elements. So all the
large values in the array beyond 120 would be tiny bars stretched out
to x of about 127516. OK, now with the original 256 elements I see
some problems.
Individually, they contain some high counts, so I guess they are going
off scale. This is unfortunate, since the original data was put into
256 bins by hardware from 307,000 + values. It looks like what I should
be feeding hist, but recreating the 307K from the 256 seems something of
a waste in that it is undoing what the hardware did. Is there some graph
function that will treat the input as already binned? For example, if I
have [10, 7, 5], I want to see a histogram of three bars, one at x =0 of
height 10, one at x=1 of height 6, and 2 of height 5. x might be some
other numbers like 18.2, 46.3 and 60.1.
