How to get data in a histogram bin

Question

I want to get a list of the data contained in a histogram bin. I am using numpy, and Matplotlib. I know how to traverse the data and check the bin edges. However, I want to d

Answer 1

how about something like:

data = numpy.array([0, 0.5, 1.5, 1.5, 1.5, 2.5, 2.5, 2.5, 3])

hist, edges = numpy.histogram(data, bins=3)

for l, r in zip(edges[:-1], edges[1:]):
   print(data[(data > l) & (data < r)]) 

Out:

[ 0.5]
[ 1.5  1.5  1.5]
[ 2.5  2.5  2.5]

with a bit of code to handle the edge cases.
