## Struct template density_impl

boost::accumulators::impl::density_impl — Histogram density estimator.

## Synopsis

    // In header: <boost/accumulators/statistics_fwd.hpp>

    template<typename Sample>
    struct density_impl : public accumulator_base {
      // construct/copy/destruct
      template<typename Args> density_impl(Args const &);

      // public member functions
      template<typename Args> void operator()(Args const &);
      template<typename Args> result_type result(Args const &) const;
    };

## Description

The histogram density estimator returns a histogram of the sample distribution. The positions and sizes of the bins are determined using a specifiable number of cached samples (cache_size). The range between the minimum and the maximum of the cached samples is subdivided into a specifiable number of bins (num_bins) of same size. Additionally, an under- and an overflow bin is added to capture future under- and overflow samples. Once the bins are determined, the cached samples and all subsequent samples are added to the correct bins. At the end, a range of std::pair is return, where each pair contains the position of the bin (lower bound) and the samples count (normalized with the total number of samples).

### `density_impl` public construct/copy/destruct

1.     template<typename Args> density_impl(Args const & args);

### `density_impl` public member functions

1.     template<typename Args> void operator()(Args const & args);

2.     template<typename Args> result_type result(Args const & args) const;

   Requires: | The number of samples must meet or exceed the cache size
