A histogram visualizes the distribution of a variable's values by grouping them into continuous ranges (bins) to show the frequency of occurrences. In Tableau, creating a histogram involves dragging a measure to the rows shelf and selecting the histogram chart option, which automatically buckets the data. Additional dimensions can be added for a stacked histogram, allowing for more detailed visual analysis across categories.

Then open Show Me and select the Histogram chart. The following diagram shows the chart created. It shows the quantities automatically bucketed into values ranging from 0 to 4811 and divided into 12 bins. Creating a Histogram
- 6. You can also add Dimensions to Measures to create histograms. This will create a stacked histogram. Each bar will have stacks representing the values of the dimension. Following the steps of the above example, add the Region Dimension to the color Shelf under Marks Card. This creates the following histogram where each bar also includes the visualization for different regions. Creating a Histogram with Dimension
