Python bindings for [Boost::Histogram][] ([source][Boost::Histogram source]), a C++14 library. This is one of the [fastest libraries][] for
histogramming, while still providing the power of a full histogram object. See
[what's new](./docs/CHANGELOG.md).

Other members of the boost-histogram family include:

- [Hist][]: The first-party analyst-friendly histogram library that extends
  boost-histogram with named axes, many new shortcuts including UHI+, plotting
  shortcuts, and more.
- [UHI][]: Specification for Histogram library interop, especially for plotting.
- [mplhep][]: Plotting extension for matplotlib with support for UHI histograms.
- [histoprint][]: Histogram display library for the command line with support for UHI.
- [dask-histogram][]: Dask support for boost-histogram.

## Usage

![Slideshow of features. See expandable text below if the image is not readable.](https://github.com/scikit-hep/boost-histogram/raw/develop/docs/_images/banner.gif)

<details><summary>Text intro (click to expand)</summary>

```python
import boost_histogram as bh

# Compose axis however you like; this is a 2D histogram
hist = bh.Histogram(
    bh.axis.Regular(2, 0, 1),
    bh.axis.Regular(4, 0.0, 1.0),
)

# Filling can be done with arrays, one per dimension
hist.fill(
    [0.3, 0.5, 0.2],
    [0.1, 0.4, 0.9],
)

# NumPy array view into histogram counts, no overflow bins
values = hist.values()

# Make a new histogram with just the second axis, summing over the first, and
# rebinning the second into larger bins:
h2 = hist[::sum, :: bh.rebin(2)]
```

</details>

We support the [uhi][] [PlottableHistogram][] protocol, so boost-histogram/[Hist][]
histograms can be plotted via any compatible library, such as [mplhep][].

## Installation

You can install this library from [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/boost-histogram/) with pip:

```bash
python3 -m pip install boost-histogram
```

All the normal best-practices for Python apply; Pip should not be very old (Pip
9 is very old), you should be in a virtual environment, etc. Python 3.10+ is
required; for older versions of Python (3.5 and 2.7), `0.13` will be installed
instead, which is API equivalent to 1.0, but will not be gaining new features.
1.3.x was the last series to support Python 3.6. 1.4.x was the last series to
support Python 3.7. 1.5.x was the last series to support Python 3.8. 1.6.x was
the last to support Python 3.9.

#### Binaries available:

The easiest way to get boost-histogram is to use a binary wheel, which happens
when you run the above command on a supported platform. Wheels are produced using
[cibuildwheel](https://cibuildwheel.readthedocs.io/en/stable/); all common
platforms have wheels provided in boost-histogram:

PowerPC, IBM-Z, and RISC-V wheels are not provided but are available on request.

If you are on a Linux system that is not part of the "many" in manylinux or musl in musllinux, such as ClearLinux, building from source is usually fine, since the compilers on those systems are often quite new. It will just take longer to install when it is using the sdist instead of a wheel. All dependencies are header-only and included.

#### Conda-Forge

The boost-histogram package is available on [conda-forge](https://github.com/conda-forge/boost-histogram-feedstock), as well. All supported variants are available.

```bash
conda install -c conda-forge boost-histogram
```

#### Source builds

For a source build, for example from an "SDist" package, the only requirements are a C++14 compatible compiler. The compiler requirements are dictated by Boost.Histogram's C++ requirements: gcc >= 5.5, clang >= 3.8, or msvc >= 14.1.

Boost is not required or needed (this only depends on included header-only dependencies). You can install directly from GitHub if you would like.

```bash
python -m pip install git+https://github.com/scikit-hep/boost-histogram.git@develop
```
