I have found over the years that sometimes the shorter "How to" Excel videos are the ones that stick with me the longest. I appreciate the easy to understand and format of the video well done.
they also have great relookup value. like if I want to find this video again it's super easy to just find a quick short video than it is to remember the long general topic
@@LeilaGharani Hi Mam, I like your videos want your help i have a data and want unique dealers count. negative figures should not be count, ca u pl help me on that so that i can share my data with u
I've found the histogram function surprisingly limited in terms of features and adjustments in excel, but the overflow and underflow features you have displayed here are very helpful. Thank you!
I spent hours trying to help my son create a histogram for an assignment, using the guide provided by the teacher. We were down to this last feature, with no understanding on how to adjust the bin or even what the bin was. Thanks so much for making it so simple!
Another very concise and informative lesson on one of the many chart features of Excel. What I have truly come to appreciate is while you are a well spoken, educated, teacher who understands real world applications of Excel. You are also the kind of woman who enjoys poking a marshmallow with a stick then roasting it over hot coals.
I've watched a few of your videos. I just want to say thank you for presenting the subject in such an easy to understand way. It only took watching two of your videos to have my boss and colleagues looking to me as the local "excel guru". Now I'll have to watch the rest of your videos to keep that title.
Thank you so much! I have looked at 6 videos to learn how to create a histogram from my data and your instruction was the clearest explanation of them all. Thanks again!
This is the by far best explanation ever of this Excel trick, I went to dozens of sites for an explanation. Yours is by far the best! Congrats and thank you!
This is the best video for me as an Excel beginner...I really like it. It really helped me to answer my excel assignment question...Please add more videos in relation to EXCEL.
It is very important video for me. Not only this video but also all you excle related video are very important for better performance. help of your video my work has been very fast, easy and good. mam if possible please make video regarding "Microsoft access " database. thank you so much for uploading this type video
Thank you soo much for this video!. I've never created one of these and I found out we are going to create this for my class in psychology. You have really made me feel more at ease doing these.
Hi Leila. I’m writing to you for the very first time. I really love your videos. Your style of explanation and bringing examples completely fits my way of understanding. Thank you a lot. Coming back to the topic, I’d like to ask you if you can show how to create a histogram chart that shows how big the values on the vertical axis and what shares of the total amount the values stand for on the horizontal axis. The practical use of it is very convenient when we are talking about marketing data for a set of products in a product line and their sales levels. So I’d like to see what share out of the total product line a certain product has (on the horizontal axis) and what sales level in dollars this product stands for (on the vertical axis). The specific thing is that the width of each column must correspond to its share value.
I mostly use the histogram chart in Excel to do quick and dirty visualizations of long datasets or when I need to get an intuitive sense of the distribution of a variable in a Monte Carlo simulation. As someone else mentioned, there are formatting issues with the native chart, so if I'm outputting something into a report or what not, I'll go back to a column chart as that allows for more formatting flexibility.
Hi Leila. Thanks for the video. Very helpful. On a standard chart, if you add a Chart Title, you can link it to a cell on the worksheet. On the Histogram Chart, this seems to not work. You can only type text in manually.. no worksheet link. Seems like a bug. Of course, you can add a Text Box, link it to a cell and then Group the Text Box and Chart together. But, would be nice if the Histogram Chart natively supported Chart Title cell links. Histogram charts are great visualizations. I use them often to show the distribution of tenants with different lease rates in a commercial building.. just one of many uses. Thanks for the Thursday Histogram Chart fun :)) Thumbs up!
Thanks Leila, I don't currently use histogram but I think I will add two of them to my August month end reports. The first will be Annual Sales by Customer and the second will be Average Order Size. I will let you know how they look. Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Go Ravens!
Short and Sweet! I never tried Overflow and Underflow feature, but your video has put me in correct flow to know these! Thanks again for a nice tutorial and looking forward to next Thursday already! (nice attire in this video by the way!) :-)
Leila.Good afternoon. I started to follow your excel videos and dashboard. very good teaching. More I would like to ask to enable subtitles in Portuguese
I’m a DJ using histograms to visualize track quantity by beats-per-minute (BPM). It’s useful to spot multiple modes in a large playlist and the BPMs above or below which you’ll have trouble finding another track to mix with (e.g., +/- 4 BPMs usually). Thanks!
Very helpful, I usually work with Power BI desktop, actually most of us use PBI desktop now for visualization. Such a coincidence I got an excel with histogram visuals and was asked to replicate that in to PBI report.
Hey Leila, I think I heard you say on another vid that we can make suggestions for future vids in the comments? Could you, if you haven’t, talk to the excel vs other options? What you see as the future of excel (not going anywhere or dying out? I’m not thinking so much about google sheets. More, when I look at productivity stuff, which I’ve used excel for...seems like theirs apps that are meant to be better/easier? Not just project management. I’d use excel for budgets, or customer management, or just personal lists. Nowadays it seems like theirs an app for all these things and more. How do you see excel in that light? And, also the future generally
Heyah, i opened one assigned Udemy training to me and i saw you are the Instructor great to see you there and enroll in your course in Udemy, more power! :D
This is a great new feature. Thanks for showing. I am confused by bin width though. It would appear that the first bin will always be bigger as it will include the lower and upper value assigned to it. 30k and 110k in your example. The next bin is smaller (very slightly in your case) as it will not include anyone with 30k. My data is with ages of students at a college where the error is more pronounced, as the first bin is 18-21 and the second is 21-24. The first bin includes students who are either 18,19,20,21 and the second bin only three 22,23,24. Thoughts?
How do you change the data labels though? I'm trying to change the data label, but when I click on one label the whole thing gets selected. And, I can't seem to individually click on one data label. If you're still keeping tabs on your videos, any suggestions? I'd be grateful.
Another wonderful video! Thank you, Leila!! I had the same thought. It looks odd - left side round bracket, right side square. Would look cleaner without brackets - on first look, it implies negative numbers.
Great video. I made a histogram. How do I name the bins (the default names (18,28], (28,38], (38,48] etc are horrible. I don't even know what is being shown. But no one shows how to replace these default values with a name for the bin category that is actually meaningful. I want mine to say 18-27 years, 28-37 years, 38-47 years etc. Also there is nothing in my underflow bin but if I remove the underflow bin the bins start from 0 not from 18 where I want them to start from. How do I remove the unused underflow bin from the chart?

Very nice video on Histogram.
I learned so much from this video. It showed me exactly how to change the bin size and much more than I anticipated. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Superb work Leila, i was scratching my head for ours with 500+ datasets and you have shown me what to do in 4 minutes
Always bringing something new on the table
Trying my best 😊

OmG; never seen such a simple illustration.
Using histogram for my masters statistics course.
Glad you like it.
This video seriously saved me. Awesome instruction.
Glad it was helpful, Jemma.
Short, but very informative video
Thank you so much for this easy explanation!
I like your examples, they are very didactic and applied in our working life... from Lima-Peru my best wishes

Glad you like it, Vijay. Hope it will come in handy for you.
There is no field to enter a number next to "Bin width". Why is Excel such a garbage software?
Nice and easy on the brain power today :)
I used histogram for account balances in different account.
Thank you so much!😀
Superb as always.
Thanks from india !!
thanks again leila
very short and informative
THANK YOU SO MUCH
Nice and precise explanation. Thank you!
Simple and great explanation. V. Good

Great histogram explanation. Currently taking your excel dashboard course, it is great too. Thanks for making this available!
Awesome, thank you Mark!
I don’t use it currently but I will moving forward as the data I work with can definitely work for this.
That's great, Ashley. Let us know how it went.
Thank 👍
Thanks!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge madam
Thank you
That's great. I was defining the CI earlier to group manually
Leila Gharani always excelled in excel and dress
😁
Very helpful, I usually work with Power BI desktop, actually most of us use PBI desktop now for visualization.
Such a coincidence I got an excel with histogram visuals and was asked to replicate that in to PBI report.
Thanks, more about charts plz.
Love your work and your will to teach us all this "secrets" that Excel have!
This just saved me 7 hours of trial and error😂 💪
Hi Leila! Is there a way to add dashes between the upper limit and lower limit numbers in each bin like 10-20, 20-30, 30-40 and so on?
Nice video Leila
How do we create histogram with variable width for classes with varying widhts?
Always useful amazing video and i learn from it to more better knowledge when i’m using excel. Thank you so much 🙏🏻
My pleasure :)
Exceptional Fam!
Great video as always, but for this one I love the soundtrack
Me too 💃😁
Hey Leila, I think I heard you say on another vid that we can make suggestions for future vids in the comments?
Could you, if you haven’t, talk to the excel vs other options?
What you see as the future of excel (not going anywhere or dying out?
I’m not thinking so much about google sheets. More, when I look at productivity stuff, which I’ve used excel for...seems like theirs apps that are meant to be better/easier?
Not just project management. I’d use excel for budgets, or customer management, or just personal lists. Nowadays it seems like theirs an app for all these things and more.
How do you see excel in that light?
And, also the future generally
Nice concept. Can you please do this mac users? Thank you
Thanks for sharing.
How to add smooth curve in histogram.

I like the Salsa in the background. Do you dance it? 🎺🎵🌿
The core purpose... well, whether it's simpler or harder, you always rock it.
Oh, so that is Salsa? Sorry, not a dancer 😁

This is so helpful!!! This example applies to my job 100% and now I have all these ideas now.
Happy to help, George :)
Great video! Is there a way to remove the square brackets in the x axis of the chart? For example change the [30,000, 70,000] to 30,000 - 70,000?
Another wonderful video! Thank you, Leila!! I had the same thought. It looks odd - left side round bracket, right side square. Would look cleaner without brackets - on first look, it implies negative numbers.
I use histogram most of the time to do error analysis
Thanks Leila, please why some people uses frequency in Y axis? what this does mean?
Is there a way to change the commas to dashes for the salary ranges?
Poor Paul, didn't have to demote him! He wanted to go part time anyway. =)
True, that would have been a nicer way to put it 😊
Hello: How if we create the Bin with frequency from Data Analysis in Excel?
Hey Leila - is there an easy way to make a log scale on the histo ...
Nice
Can we create histogram for manhours worked for different projects
