I have set of value in float (always less than 0). Which I want to bin into histogram, i,e. each bar in histogram contain range of value [0,0.150)
The data I have looks like this:
0.000
0.005
0.124
0.000
0.004
0.000
0.111
0.112
Whith my code below I expect to get result that looks like
[0, 0.005) 5
[0.005, 0.011) 0
...etc..
I tried to do do such binning with this code of mine. But it doesn't seem to work. What's the right way to do it?
#! /usr/bin/env python
import fileinput, math
log2 = math.log(2)
def getBin(x):
return int(math.log(x+1)/log2)
diffCounts = [0] * 5
for line in fileinput.input():
words = line.split()
diff = float(words[0]) * 1000;
diffCounts[ str(getBin(diff)) ] += 1
maxdiff = [i for i, c in enumerate(diffCounts) if c > 0][-1]
print maxdiff
maxBin = max(maxdiff)
for i in range(maxBin+1):
lo = 2**i - 1
hi = 2**(i+1) - 1
binStr = '[' + str(lo) + ',' + str(hi) + ')'
print binStr + '\t' + '\t'.join(map(str, (diffCounts[i])))
