  • You can specify either the total number of bins or the specific bin boundaries with the parameters `bins`. It's currently set to 50 in your code. Try setting it to something lower, like 30. – JoostVn Sep 28 '21 at 06:55

Currently you now specify 50 bins. If you want to increase the WIDTH of the bins (and decrease the NUMBER of bins), you can just specify a lower number of bins (e.g. bins=25). So change the line to:

df_russel_fee.hist(column='fee', by='fiscal_year',xlabelsize=10, figsize=(0,0),bins=25,ax=axes)

If you want to keep the same number of bins, but make the figures WIDER, you can change the figsize parameter in the same line. The tuple behind figsize= specifies (width, height).

  • If I don't want to decrease the number of bins I just want to increase the width of the bins – Sujeet maurya Sep 28 '21 at 11:37
  • If you don't decrease the number of bins and you don't widen your figure, then your bins would just overlap and you wouldn't see the individual bars anymore... – Niels Henkens Sep 28 '21 at 11:38
