+# [[2017-02-08] Challenge #302 [Intermediate] ASCII Histogram Maker: Part 1 - The Simple Bar Chart](https://www.reddit.com/r/dailyprogrammer/comments/5st2so/20170208_challenge_302_intermediate_ascii/)
+
+## Description
+
+Any Excel user is probably familiar with the bar chart - a simple plot showing
+vertical bars to represent the frequency of something you counted. For today's
+challenge you'll be producing bar charts in ASCII. 
+
+(Part 2 will have you assemble a proper histogram from a collection of data.)
+
+## Input Description
+
+You'll be given four numbers on the first line telling you the start and end of
+the horizontal (X) axis and the vertical (Y) axis, respectively. Then you'll
+have a number on a single line telling you how many records to read. Then
+you'll be given the data as three numbers: the first two represent the interval
+as a start (inclusive) and end (exclusive), the third number is the frequency
+of that variable. Example:
+
+    140 190 1 8 
+    5
+    140 150 1
+    150 160 0 
+    160 170 7 
+    170 180 6 
+    180 190 2 
+
+## Output Description
+
+Your program should emit an ASCII bar chart showing the frequencies of the
+buckets. Your program may use any character to represent the data point, I show
+an asterisk below. From the above example:
+
+    8
+    7           *
+    6           *   *
+    5           *   *
+    4           *   *
+    3           *   *
+    2           *   *   *
+    1   *       *   *   * 
+     140 150 160 170 180 190
