You could try doing it with the rectangle command, type

help rectangle

in your command window to find out more.

However I don't see why you can't use the hist command...

I'm not sure what you're asking. Exactly what does "have histogram of sine wave with plot command" mean? Do you mean that you just want to plot it in an axes with the plot() command (like the body of your post seems to indicate)? Or do you want to DETERMINE the histogram some other way than the hist() function (like the subject line of your post seems to indicate)? Why can't you just do

[counts values] = hist(yourSineSignal, numberOfBins);
plot(values, counts);
