binCount Function (GPL)

Syntax

binCount(<integer> ...)

<integer>. An integer indicating the number of bins. If there are multiple binned dimensions, you can specify the number of bins for each dimension. Use commas to separate the multiple counts. For example, binCount(15,10) specifies 15 bins for dimension 1 and 10 for dimension 2. 0 specifies the default for a dimension. So, binCount(0,10) specifies the default number of bins for dimension 1 and 10 bins for dimension 2.

Description

Specifies the number of bins.

Examples

Figure 1. Example: Defining a specific number of bins

ELEMENT: interval(position(summary.count(bin.rect(salary, binCount(25)))))

Figure 2. Example: Defining a specific number of bins for multiple binned dimensions

ELEMENT: interval(position(bin.rect(salbegin*salary, dim(1,2), binCount(25,25))))
