"First of all, let's see how many samples of each class we have, using a [histogram](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Histogram). \n",
"\n",
"A histogram is a graphical representation of the distribution of numerical data. It is an estimation of the probability distribution of a continuous variable (quantitative variable). \n",
"\n",
"For building a histogram, we need first to 'bin' the range of values—that is, divide the entire range of values into a series of intervals—and then count how many values fall into each interval. \n",
"\n",
"In our case, since the values are not continuous and we have only three values, we do not need to bin them."
