Subject: [Rd] weird breaks in hist (PR#2431)
Message-ID: <200301081506.QAA29533@pubhealth.ku.dk>

Thanks for the details of this feature,

I wanted all values been treated equally. I now achieved this through

hist(1:4, br=0:4,include.lowest=F)

In the help pages I could not find this; the default bin number
algorithm nclass.Sturges gives for 1:3 3 bins as a result, but hist(1:3)
draws 4.
