% Load data on beak length load beaksData beaks; % Calculate histograms for the beak data minBeak = min(beaks); maxBeak = max(beaks); nbins = minBeak:0.2:maxBeak; [nB, xB] = hist(beaks, nbins); % Create a stair plot of beak sizes figure; stairs(xB, nB/sum(nB), 'b'); % Add title and axis labels title('Ground finch beak sizes'); xlabel('Beak size in mm'); ylabel('Fraction of birds with beak size');
