Google Charts – Histogram Chart Buckets

Following is an example of a histogram chart with a custom bucket size. We’ve already seen the configuration used to draw this chart in the Google Charts Configuration Syntax chapter. So, let’s see the complete example.

Configurations

We’ve used the bucketSize configuration of the histogram to change the default bucket size of the histogram chart.

// Set chart options
var options = {
   histogram: { bucketSize: 5 }
};
