putting the data inside the correct x values in hist plot

Hello,

I use hist plot. Let's say that my data is y=[3,5] and I want to make a histogram between x=1:6. I do the following.

y=[3,5]; x=1:6 hist(y,x)

This gives me two vertical bars. One bar is right above 3 and the other bar is right above 5. I want the first one between 2 and 4, and the second one between 5 and 6. Can you help me with this?

Thank you,

[Thomas]

The first bar between 2 and 4? or between 2 and 3? if the first bar is between 2-3 wouldn't the second be between 4-5 and not 5-6?

or do you want he bars between 3-4 and 5-6?
