Plotting number of halos per logarithmic bin

[allazar]

Hello all,.

I'm right now playing the publicly released data from the Illustris simulation.
Im trying to plot the number of halos per logarithmic mass bin or the number of halos between mass M and M+dM

I'm only familiar using theoretical models like Press-Schecter and I have no idea how do begin plotting actual data. Any idea how I should go about this? I'd appreciate any help I get.

Thank you.

I really don't know exactly what you need, but I couldn't resist the compulsion... Maybe this will lead you somewhere.
