## Code examples
The following stripped-down example was taken from the [Getting started](https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/develop/libs/histogram/doc/html/histogram/getting_started.html) section in the documentation. Have a look into the docs to see the full version with comments and more examples.

Example: Make and fill a 1d-histogram ([try it live on Wandbox](https://wandbox.org/permlink/NSM2ZiDyntUi6RDC)). The core of this example [compiles into 53 lines of assembly code](https://godbolt.org/z/632yzE).
