Draw histogram of the DataFrame’s series using matplotlib / pylab.
Parameters: data : DataFrame
column : string or sequence
If passed, will be used to limit data to a subset of columns
by : object, optional
If passed, then used to form histograms for separate groups
grid : boolean, default True
Whether to show axis grid lines
xlabelsize : int, default None
If specified changes the x-axis label size
xrot : float, default None
rotation of x axis labels
ylabelsize : int, default None
If specified changes the y-axis label size
yrot : float, default None
rotation of y axis labels
ax : matplotlib axes object, default None
sharex : boolean, default True if ax is None else False
In case subplots=True, share x axis and set some x axis labels toinvisible; defaults to True if ax is None otherwise False if an axis passed in; Be aware, that passing in both an ax and sharex=Truewill alter all x axis labels for all subplots in a figure!
sharey : boolean, default False
In case subplots=True, share y axis and set some y axis labels toinvisible
figsize : tuple
The size of the figure to create in inches by default
layout : tuple, optional
Tuple of (rows, columns) for the layout of the histograms
bins : integer, default 10
Number of histogram bins to be used
kwds : other plotting keyword arguments
To be passed to hist function
