    33An '''{{{histogram}}}''' object represents a set of tabulated frequencies. It shows what proportion of cases fall into
    44specific bins or categories.

    46  '''{{{<xy>}}}''':: The data is in x/y pairs of values.  This is similar to how the '''{{{curve}}}''' object represents its data values.  The x-values are displayed as numbers. 
     48 '''{{{<xy>}}}''':: The data is in name/value pairs.  The name is a string that will label the bar.  The value is the frequency. The order of the bars is the order of the pairs.
