[R] Getting Break Points From Hist Function?

[Ott Toomet]

Hi,

I guess you are looking for something like

a <- hist(...., plot=FALSE) # don't draw the histogram
a$breaks # breakpoints
a$counts # frequency table

This is documented as the return value for hist() on the help page.

Perahps it helps.

 | Is there any way to extract the break points from a hist function as a 
 | vector so I can later use them for a cut function?

 | break points that were used in the histogram.
