# Histogram

> Count the number of occurrences over some interval

The histogram aggregation dynamically creates buckets for a given `interval` and counts the number of occurrences
in each bucket.

Each value is rounded down to its bucket. For instance, a rating of `18` with an interval of `5` rounds down to a bucket
with key `15`.

```sql theme={null}
SELECT pdb.agg('{"histogram": {"field": "rating", "interval": "1"}}')
FROM mock_items
WHERE id @@@ pdb.all();
```

```ini Expected Response theme={null}
                                                                                  agg
