Explanation: A histogram is a type of graphical representation that organizes and displays data in a bar or column chart format. It is commonly used to show the distribution of data and the frequency or count of values within different intervals or ranges. Each bar or column in a histogram represents a specific interval or range, and the height of the bar represents the frequency or count of data points falling within that range. This makes it easier to visualize and analyze patterns and trends in the data.
