I don't think that helps. How can I specify apriori the number of bins and the min and max? AFAICT, the above would let me do this by forcing in some fake data, that has the effect of filling the cache and thus setting num_bins, min, max, but is has the side effect of causing that data to effect the histogram - which is not what I need.
Unless I misunderstand, we need another (simpler) class "histogram" that implements just this simpler behavior. Perhaps density could be build on top of it?
Hello, It happens that I needed a similar solution. I didn't have much time and am not an expert in mpl, but I've created a rough hack from density.hpp that seems to work... And I think that this is a very useful feature, because otherwise I would have to do the hack with setting the cache to 2 and injecting 2 dummy samples with the bounds... Sending again, as during the night I sent from the wrong address and got a bounce. Milosz
