Uniformly-spaced Histogram Bins With Dc.js?

Mike Bostock uses the following snippet to generate uniformly-spaced bins for a histogram: var data = d3.layout.histogram() .bins(x.ticks(20)) (values); source Is there any way to

Solution 1:

dc.js supports histograms via crossfilter. Use a group for your bar chart that looks something like this:

var binwidth = 0.2;
var dim = ndx.dimension(function(d) { return d.x; });
var group = dim.group(function(d) { return binwidth * Math.floor(d.x/binwidth); });

This tells crossfilter to use keys binwidth apart.

And initialize the bar chart with these units:

chart.xUnits(dc.units.fp.precision(binwidth));
