Hist is a analyst friendly front-end for boost-histogram.

Installation

You can install this library from PyPI with pip:

python -m pip install hist

Usage

import hist

# You can create a histogram like this.
h = (
  hist.Hist()
  .Reg(10, 0 ,1, name="x", label="x-axis")
  .Variable(range(10), name="y", label="y-axis")
  .Int64()
)

# Filling by names is allowed in hist.
hist.fill(y=[1, 4, 6], x=[3, 5, 2])

# New ways to manipulate the histogram.
h.project("x")
h[{"y": 1j + 3, "x": 5j}]
...

# Elegant plotting functions.
h.plot()
h.plot2d_full()
h.plot_pull(Callable)
...

Features

  • Hist augments metadata by adding names to axes; these are highly recommend and will help you track axes. There is also a special NamedHist, which will enforce all hist axes have names, and all axes will require named access.

    • name= is a unique label describing each axis
    • label= is an optional string that is used in plotting (defaults to name if not provided)
    • Indexing, projection, and more support named axes.
  • The Hist class augments the bh.Histogram class with the following shortcuts, designed for interactive exploration without extensive imports:

    • Optional import-free construction system
    • Quick import-free data-coordinates and rebin syntax (use a j suffix for numbers, or strings directly in indexing expressions)
  • Quick plotting routines encourage exploration:

    • .plot() provides 1D and 2D plots
    • .plot2d_full() shows 1D projects around a 2D plot
    • .plot_pull(...) performs a pull plot
