Let's say I generate a bunch of random numbers from 0-1. Then, I'd like 
to make a histogram of it. But here's the clincher. I'd like my bins to 
overlap a bit. For example, if the first bin is from 0 - 0.1, centered 
on 0.05, I'd like the next (second) bin to be centered on 0.1 and range 
from 0.05 - 0.15.

So basically, I want the width of each bin to be greater than the spacing.

Is this something that could be done with the histogram function? I did 
a couple of google searches and couldn't come up with anything 
meaningful. Apparently, 'rwidth' in the hist function just makes the 
displayed bars bigger or smaller.

Any thoughts?
