1.52.8 binorigin

set binorigin <value>

The setting binorigin affects the behaviour of the histogram command by adjusting where it places the boundaries between the bins into which it places data. The histogram command selects a system of bins which, if extended to infinity in both directions, would put a bin boundary at the value specified in the set binorigin command. Thus, if a value of $$0.1$ were specified to the {\tt set binorigin} command\index{set binorigin command@{\tt set binorigin} command}, and a bin width of~ 20 were chosen by the {\tt histogram} command\index{histogram command@{\tt histogram} command}, bin boundaries might lie at~ $20.1$, $40.1$, $60.1$, and so on. The specified value may have any physical units, but must be real and finite.
