Is this a bug (or a feature) in hist(x)$density ??
Hi all,
A friend send me a question on why does this:
x<-rpois(100,1)
sum( hist(x)$density )
Gives out "2"
I tried this:
sum( hist(x, freq =T)$density )
It didn't help.
Then he came back with the following insight:
# with breaks
b<-c(0,0.9,1:8)
sum(hist(x,breaks=b)$density) # Much more then 2
# but if we add weights according to the interval length
