    Summary

    Description
    English: Histogram skewed to the right (positive skew), with the long tail on the right. The bars are the expected counts for 1,000 observations from a gamma distribution with shape 2 and scale 1, in bins of width 0.5 from 0 to 8. The dashed curve is the gamma density scaled to the same counts (1,000 × 0.5 × density). A key below the chart names the bars and the curve.

    Counts, left to right: 90, 174, 178, 152, 119, 88, 63, 44, 30, 21, 14, 9, 6, 4, 3, 2. Of the distribution, 0.30% lies above 8.

    One of a set of six: see File:Histogram shape - symmetric, unimodal.svg.
