A histogram is a graph showing the distribution of tones in the
image. The horizontal axis corresponds to pixel brightness,
with dark pixels at the left and bright pixels at the right. The
vertical axis shows the number of pixels of each brightness
in the image. Note that camera histograms may diff er from
those displayed in imaging applications.
