As you said the integral of probability density function is one, but the density function itself could be bigger then one. Think of the delta distribution. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delta_distribution If you want, you can plot the normalized frequency plot using hist with the normalization argument equal to 1. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
