Function to compute array of bin counts for a data vector

x

(input) data vector

ab

(input vector of length 2): half-open interval for bins $[a,b)$. If no value is specified, the range of x is stretched by 5% at each end and used the interval.

ab <- c(-5,5)           # bin interval
bins <- bin1(x,ab,10)     # bin x into 10 bins over ab
