Assuming a constant bin width, you need to multiply the density by n*binwidth, where the bin width is (obviously!) the width of the histogram bins.
>>> Jacques Wagnor <jacques.wag...@gmail.com> 05/09/09 5:10 PM >>> Dear List, When I plot a histogram with 'freq=FALSE' and overlay the histogram with a normal pdf curve, everything looks as expected, as follows: x <- rnorm(1000) hist(x, freq=FALSE) curve(dnorm(x), add=TRUE, col="blue") What do I need to do if I want to show the frequencies (freq=TRUE) with the same normal pdf overlay, so that the plot would still look the same?
