Hello everybody,
I have a problem with the logarithmic binning of some data (which are expected to be distributed as a power law). I found this https://www.physicsforums.com/threads/exponential-binning.691834/
What "mute" says is exactly what I need: equally spaced bins on a logscale to estimate the exponent of a power law via the histogram. However, doing what he says doesn't make me obtain equally spaced bins.
However, the real problem is that I can't find anywhere a reference to study that makes me understand how to do an histogram with logarithmic binning.
Can someone help me with some suggestion or reference?
thanks!
