Log y-axis on histograms are conceptually wrong, but aren't a bad idea
either. It is conceptually safer to show this using density. Consider
an exponential distribution, which could look better with a log y-axis:
x - rexp(1,.1)
xd - density(x,from=0)
par(mfrow=c(2,1))
plot(xd)
Hello

Y-axis in log-scale?
Thanks for your help!

I'm not sure that you want to use a log scale here, but may be better

There is a log-histogram (called log.hist) in my
