 // Histogram is an object that aggregates statistics, and can summarize them in
 // various forms, including ASCII graphical, HTML, and numerically (as a
 // vector of numbers corresponding to each of the aggregating buckets).
 
 // It supports calls to accumulate either time intervals (which are processed
 // as integral number of milliseconds), or arbitrary integral units.
