Hi,
I haven't used the Histogram in v.7 until today.
It seems like in my setup both the function is not recognized (whenever
I write "Histogram" it turns red) as well as options introduced in v.7
turn red ("ChartElements" for example).
Two more associated problems:
- novel features don't work:
data1 = RandomReal[NormalDistribution[0, 1], 50];
data2 = RandomReal[NormalDistribution[3, 1/2], 50];
Histogram[{data1, data2}]
returns the following arrays, but no chart
Histogram[{{0.781332, 1.57135, 0.114981, 1.36426, 0.755184, -0.798411,

- the options of Histogram seem not to be identical with what is
described in the help of v.7

Is it true that I think this is before v.7 or does this all seem ok to you?
Could there somewhere be old "definitions" of functions in my system???
I was going through $UserBaseDirectory, but couldn't find anything that
seems to be related to Histogram...
What am I doing wrong?
Do I need to add a package?
I thought this is not necessary anymore in v.7...
I am running v.7.0.0 (should I update??) on OSX 10.5.8
Thanks for your help,
Cheers,
