Can't make a histogram

You're probably trying to graph a function that does not involve stat plot features. You can correct this by turning off the stat plot features. Press "2ND" "STAT PLOT" and then select 4:PlotsOff.

Hi scarfacecoke,

One of the statistical plot's may be on while your trying to do other functions. You can go to the y= editor / STAT editor and, turn them all OFF.

1). Press [CLEAR] at the Home screen

2). Press [2nd][Y=] Open's the (STAT PLOT) editor screen.

3). Press [4:PlotsOFF]

4). The PlotsOff Command should now display at the Home screen.

5). Press [ENTER] , Now the plots should be off are off

If you still have this error even after you turned off the plot you may have a list that is a invalid dimension. List dimensions can only be between 1 and 999. A matrix can only be between 1 and 99. Or your trying to invert a matrix that isn't square.

If you can't find the list that is causing you problem you can clear all the lists. To clear all the lists press [2nd] [MEM][4][ENTER] This should set all lists dimensions to 0.

You must deactivate the Statistical plots.
Press [STAT].
In list that is displayed delect [4:PlotsOff] and press [ENTER]
Go to [Y=] editor to enter functions or press [GRAPH] if functions already entered.

To clean the slate so to speak, just reset the RAM.

1. Press [2nd][+] to access the (MEM)ory management function
2. Press [7:Reset]
3. Press [1:All Ram]
4. Press [2:Reset]
5. Press [CLEAR] to erase the "RAM cleared" Message

Hi,
From what I understand you want to draw statistical graphs (scatter plot, box plot, etc.) If you do not see anything it may be due to the fact that the statistical plots are turned off.

Type in the data in lists L1 and L2, etc. Press [2nd][QUIT]

Press [2nd][Y=] (STAT PLOT] . Select [4:PlotsOff] [ENTER] .
Screen displays Done

Press [2nd][Y=] (STAT PLOT] . Select [1:Plot1 Off].

1. The configuration screen for Plot1 opens with the cursor blinking ON.
2. Press [ENTER] to turn Plot1 ON.
3. Use Down Arrow to move cursor to second line Type:
4. Select the type of statistical plot. Use the right arrow to move highlight on one of the 6 types.
5. Select the type:scatter, Xline, histogram, box plot, and press [ENTER] to validate the choisce.
6. Use down arrow to select the Xlist: use [2nd][1] to choose L1, etc. and press [ENTER]
7. Select the Y-List (L2) and validate by pressing [ENTER]
8. Select the data-point mark.
9. Press [GRAPH].

If you do not see the graph or if it is not well centred, press [ZOOM][9:ZoomStat] to restrict the screen to the data entered.

Hope it helps.
Thank you for rating the solution.

Hi,
From what I understand you want to draw statistical graphs (scatter plot, box plot, etc.) and you window is set up correctly. Usually, one must first see agraph and adjust the window, but no matter.
If you do not see anything it may be due to the fact thea the statistical plots are turned off.

Type in the data in lists L1 and L2, etc. Press [2nd][QUIT]

Press [2nd][Y=] (STAT PLOT] . Select [4:PlotsOff] [ENTER] .
Screen displays Done

Press [2nd][Y=] (STAT PLOT] . Select [1:Plot1 Off].

1. The configuration screen for Plot1 opens with the cursor blinking ON.
2. Press [ENTER] to turn Plot1 ON.
3. Use Down Arrow to move cursor to second line Type:
4. Select the type of statistical plot. Use the right arrow to move highlight on one of the 6 types.
5. Select the type:scatter, Xline, histogram, box plot, and press [ENTER] to validate the choisce.
6. Use down arrow to select the Xlist: use [2nd][1] to choose L1, etc. and press [ENTER]
7. Select the Y-List (L2) and validate by pressing [ENTER]
8. Select the data-point mark.
9. Press [GRAPH].

If you do not see the graph or if it is not well centered, press [ZOOM][9:ZoomStat] to restrict the screen to the data entered.

Hello,
1.Press [MODE], scroll to set Function graphing mode.
2.Press [STAT] [5:SetUpEditor], command is pasted in home screen. Press [ENTER]. Screen displays Done. This clears old values in lists

3. Press [STAT][1:Edit] to enter data.
Press [ENTER] after each number. Cursor moves to next row. After finishing the data of Listt L1, use arrow right and UP to the head of list L2. Enter the values in list L2. Press Enter after last element.

4. Press [Y=] to display Y= editor. Clear function Y1 and all functions or remove highlight from the = in Y2, Y3, etc.
5.Press [2nd][STATPLOT]1 to select 1:Plot1


The blinking cursor on ON means graph will be drawn. Type chosen is Scatter plot. Mark chosen is a dot.

Press [ZOOM][9:ZoomStat]

If you think that the curve look like a straight line you can try to do a linear regression.
Press [STAT] Arrow right to highlight [CALC]
Select [4: LinReg(ax+b)]



LinReg(ax+b) echoes on run screen. Press [2nd] L1 Press comma, Press [2nd] L2 press comma Press [VARS] Arrow right to select [Y:VARs][1:Function] [ENTER][1:Y1]

ENTER

That is the equation for the linear regression. As you see eqaution has been saved in Y1. Press [GRAPH] to get the data and the regression curve drawn on same graph.


Hope it helps.

You're probably trying to graph a function that does not involve stat plot features. You can correct this by turning off the stat plot features.

Press GRAPH F1 to enter the equation editor.

Plot1 Plot2 Plot3 on the top line of the equation editor displays the on/off status of each stat plot. When a plot name is highlighted, the plot is on. To toggle the status, press up, left, and right to place the cursor on the name, then press ENTER.

Hello,
When you finish entering you data, Press F2:Plot setup. Highlight
one plot number , say plot1, then press F1:define to define the type of plot you want plot1 to be. In the new window
Plot type : select histogram
x : enter the header of the column where you put data c1, c2 ?
Hist. Bucket width : enter the width of each band
Use frequency and categories:Yes
Frequencies : enter the name of colum where frequencies are.
Categories : column of categories (if any)
Include Categories: enter the categories that you want to use.

Press ENTER to save.
Configure the Window, then [Diamond][GRAPH].
A sound lnowledge of the theory behind the histogram is needed.
Hope it helps.

This is a pretty vague problem but not much of a problem. Your actualy plotting device of your stat plot is under your "y=". But before you do that you need to hit the stat button right next to the blue apps button. Then hit edit. These are your stat data. If you are trying to add data in you should notice what list they are under. (top of the screen L1, L2, ect.) You should also make sure that the number of data adds up for your two list. Now that you have done that you can go to "2nd" then hit "y=". If you don't want to graph your stat plots just make sure they all sat plot... off by hitting enter on the one that says that it is on. Now if you want one on hit enter and make sure your lists from your data match up with your stat plot. You can hit enter and see what one you need. they are above the 1, 2, 3, etc key. Hope this works. If all else fails you can clear your calculator by pressing "2nd", "+", "7", "1", "2". This will turn off all your stat plots if you have trouble understandsing this. But most importnat make sure your L1 and L2 match up on your stat plot with your list under your stat edit. If you don't understand this just i can help you out some more
