Cumulative histogram over the frames

I had normalized data of histogram stored in separate files. How do I plot the cumulative histogram?

{Frame 1}(filename)
-1.114060000000000050e-01 0.000000000000000000e+00
-1.140599999999999947e-02 0.000000000000000000e+00

7.885940000000000172e-01 0.000000000000000000e+00

Can someone give me idea how do I proceed? I look https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.stats.cumfreq.html but didn't get any clue.

I used following code:

hist, bin_edges = n.histogram(a, density = True)

to generate this histogram files(normalized).

Solution

  • You can use plt.hist, which has both the argument density (which normalizes) and cumulative, to plot the cumulative histogram:

    plt.hist(a, density = True ,cumulative=True)
plt.show()
