Optimizing Histograms for Clustering Data: A Customized Approach to Visualize Value Distribution
Based on the provided R code, it appears that there is an error in the histogram function call. The error message indicates that the bin width defaults to 1/30 of the range of the data, but a better value should be chosen. This suggests that the issue lies with the binning of the data. Looking at the provided data, we can see that there are two groups: “cluster” and “regular”. The “cluster” group has values ranging from -147 to 35, while the “regular” group has values ranging from 36 to 49.
