[ncl-talk] Issues with bin_sum

[Carl Schreck]

I'm getting some strange results with bin_sum (see attached script and
figures). This simple script is using bin_sum to make a 2-d histogram of
some random data. The shading in each box tells how many points fall within
that box.

The data are the same in all plots, and so are the bin widths. The only
thing I change is the range of bins. If I change the high end of the range
(page 1-2), the figure stays the same as expected. But if I change the low
end of the range (page 2-3), the whole plot changes in a seemingly random
way.

Any thoughts on what might be causing this? I'm using 6.2.1. Thanks!

    Carl
