I have a file with 2 numeric columns: value and count. File may have > 5000 rows. I do plot(value, count) to find the shape of distribution. But because there are too many data points the picture is not very clear.
Do you know better visualization approach? Probably histograms or barplot with grouping close values on x axis will be the better way to look on data? I cannot figure out the syntax of using histogram or barplot for my case.
