Experiment No: 3
Aim: To perform histogram analysis on a given dataset using data analysis toolpak in Excel.
Theory: A histogram is used to summarize discrete or continuous data. In other words, it provides a
visual interpretation. This requires focusing on the main points, facts of numerical data by showing the
number of data points that fall within a specified range of values (called “bins”). It is similar to a vertical
bar graph.
4. We can perform histogram analysis by first performing descriptive statistics which gives the minimum
and maximum range of the numbers in the dataset. So for descriptive statistics go to ‘Data’->Click on
‘Data Analysis’->Select ‘Descriptive Statistics’-> Click on ‘OK’.
8. After performing descriptive statistics, for creating histogram write numbers from minimum to
maximum range in one column.
9.Go to ‘Data Analysis’->Click on ‘Histogram’->In input range select all data.->in Bin range select the
numbers that we have written in column from minimum to maximum range->For output range select
anyone cell->Click ‘OK’.
Output:
Conclusion: Thus, I successfully performed Histogram analysis on a given dataset using data analysis
toolpak in Excel.
