  8. Press WINDOW.
  9. Set up the window as follows:
  10. Xmin: lowest class boundary
  11. Xmax: highest class boundary
  12. Xscl: class width
  13. Ymin: 0
  14. Ymax: a little higher than the largest frequency
  15. Yscl: Could use a lot of things here, but 1 will work
  16. Xres: 1
  17. Press GRAPH. The calculator should now display the desired histogram. You can view details about each of the bins by pressing TRACE.
