NAME

       histobins - histogram bins utility for scripts/hal-histogram

SYNOPSIS

       Usage:
         Read availablebins pin for the number of bins available.
         Set the minvalue, binsize, and nbins pins.
           Ensure nbins <= availablebins
           For nbins = N, the bins are numbered: 0 ... N-1
         Iterate:
           Set index pin to a bin number: 0 <= index < nbins.
           Read check pin and verify that check pin == index pin.
           Read outputs: binvalue, pextra, nextra pins.
                (binvalue is count for the indexed bin)
                (pextra   is count for all inputs > maxvalue)
                (nextra   is count for all bins   < minvalue)

        If index is out of range (index < 0 or index > maxbinnumber)
        then binvalue == -1.
        The input-error pin is set when input rules are violated
        and updates cease.
        The reset pin may be used to restart.
        The input used is selected based on pintype:
          pintype  inputpin
          -------  -----------
                0  input
                1  input-s32
                2  input-u32
                3  input-bit
        Additional output statistics pins:
          input-min
          input-max
          nsamples
          variance
          mean
        The method input pin selects an alternate variance calculation.

       Maintainers note: hardcoded for MAXBINNUMBER==200
