9 - Configure the Histogram Board

📖 Task Introduction

The Histogram Board aggregates the distinct values in a given column and displays the results as a bar chart.

We'll use the Histogram Board to explore the total distance traveled per carrier across our dataset.

After you configure your Histogram using the steps below, only the top ten bars are displayed. To display more values, click + Show More to display up to 50 values. If there are more than 50 values, use the dropdown menu to navigate to other parts of the range.
