twoway histogram ttl exp,
fraction
width(1)
If we use the
fraction
option, the
y
-axis is scaled such that the height of
each bar is the probability of falling
within the range of
-values represented
by the bar. Thus, if we specify the
width of bars to be 1, the sum of the
heights of the bars is 1.

twoway histogram ttl exp,
percent
width(1)
The
percent
option is similar to the
fraction
option, except that the
y
-axis
is represented as a percentage instead
of a proportion. If we also specify a bar
width of 1, the sum of the heights of
the bars is 100%.
