Description

I noticed erroneous gaps in the histogram in many cases.

Attached are examples from Natural Earth's countries name_len.

Also a comparison between a histogram in R and the same in QGIS (both using the same number of bins I believe, I used Freedman-Diaconis in R, I think QGIS uses that too).

I am on ae1250b on Archlinux, not totally up to date with master.

Can you share your data? Just a CSV with the values from the column used is enough

Open the Shapefile from http://www.naturalearthdata.com/http//www.naturalearthdata.com/download/10m/cultural/ne_10m_admin_0_countries.zip

Choose a graduated style and classify by "name_len". Switch to Histogram tab and play around.
