.SH NAME
gbbin \- A program to bin data
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B gbbin
[\fI\,options\/\fR]
.SH DESCRIPTION
Compute binned statistics. Data are read from standard input as records
(X,Y1,Y2,...). Equipopulated bins are built with respect to the first field
X. Option \fB\-O\fR decide which statistics are printed for each bin. With options
\fB\-x\fR, \fB\-y\fR or \fB\-c\fR elements in different bins are split in different columns.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
\fB\-n\fR
set the number of equipopulated bins (default 10)
.TP
\fB\-w\fR
min,max set manually the binning window. Ignored with \fB\-x\fR,\-y and \fB\-c\fR
.TP
\fB\-O\fR
set the output with a comma separated list of variables: xmean, xmin,
xmax, xstd, xmedian, ymean, yadev, ystd, yvar, yskew, ykurt, ymin,
ymax, ymedian, num (default xmean, ymean)
.TP
\fB\-c\fR#
the values in column # are split in different columns; # can be a comma
separated list of columns
.TP
\fB\-x\fR
equivalent to \fB\-c\fR 1
.TP
\fB\-y\fR
equivalent to \fB\-c\fR 2
.TP
\fB\-F\fR
specify the input fields separators (default " \et")
.TP
\fB\-v\fR
verbose mode
.SH EXAMPLES
.TP
gbbin \-n 20 < file
split the records (line) in 20 bins according to first
field. Print the average value of the bin entries for
each column. If 'file' has 3 columns, the output has
twenty rows and three columns.
.TP
gbbin \-O ymedian < file
bin the records with respect to the first value and
print the median value of the other columns in each bin
.TP
gbbin \-c 3 < file
the binned values of the third columns are printed on
separate columns. The output has ten columns.
