Bucket Numbers into Histogram Bin Counts in Python
Partition a list of numbers into equal-width histogram bins and count how many fall into each bin using only the Python standard library.
from collections import Counter
def histogram_bins(numbers, num_bins):
"""Bucket numbers into histogram bin counts."""
if not numbers:
return []
min_val = min(numbers)
max_val = max(numbers)
bin_width = (max_val - min_val) / num_bins
