display_histogram

Syntax

display_histogram()
display_histogram( [ChipsId] )
display_histogram( "histogram_id" )
display_histogram( "all" )

Description

Depending on the argument, this command displays the current histogram, the histogram indicated in a ChipsId structure or by the histogram_id, or all histograms.

(no argument) - the current histogram is displayed.
ChipsId - an optional ChipsId structure containing values to modify the currency state for the command.
histogram_id - identification tag given to each object that is created; use this to display a specific histogram.
all - displays all histograms.

Example 1

chips> add_histogram([5,8,13], [10, 15, 20], [12, 17, 22], "id=basic")
chips> hide_histogram("basic")
chips> display_histogram()

Create a histogram and hide it, then display the current histogram.

Example 2

chips> id = ChipsId()
chips> add_histogram([5,8,13], [10, 15, 20], [12, 17, 22], "id=basic")
chips> hide_histogram("basic")
chips> add_histogram([8,10,14], [12, 17, 22], [14, 19, 24], [1,1,2],
"id=witherrs")
chips> add_histogram([8,10,14], [12, 17, 22], [14, 19, 24], [1,1,2],
["id", "witherrs", "symbol.style", "diamond", "err.style", "capped"])
chips> id.histogram = "basic"
chips> display_histogram(id)

Two histograms are created; the second histogram is current after it is created. The id.histogram command sets the histogram value of the ChipsId structure to the first histogram. That histogram is then displayed.

Example 3

chips> add_histogram([5,8,13], [10, 15, 20], [12, 17, 22], "id=basic")
chips> add_histogram([8,10,14], [12, 17, 22], [14, 19, 24], [1,1,2],
["id", "witherrs", "symbol.style", "diamond", "err.style", "capped"])
chips> hide_histogram("all")
chips> display_histogram("all")

Two histograms are created and hidden, then the display_histogram command displays them both.
