[R] Simple question on binning data

?hist

However, I'm going to go way out on a limb here, as I know absolutely
nothing of what you're up to, and suggest that you do NOT need to bin your
data.

There would be several people who could help if you gave us a minimal, 
reproducible example like the posting guide asks for.

If you have a vector of continuous data, and need to create a 
categorical variable (in R, a factor) from that continuous variable, 
then ?cut can help you.
