.. _auto_curves_bin_ranges:

*BIN VALUES OF CURVE*
=====================

Bins the Y-values of one or more curves into a specified number of ranges using a chosen aggregation strategy (average, max, first, or last Y). Use this worker to discretise continuous curve data into histogram-style bins for downstream statistical analysis or visualisation.

     - —
     - 
     - One or more input curves whose Y-values will be binned; accepts a vector of curve objects in d3VIEW curve format.
   * - Bin Type
     - bin_type
     - string
     - yavg
     - 
     - Aggregation method used to represent each bin: 'yavg' (mean Y), 'ymax' (maximum Y), 'yfirst' (first Y value in bin), or 'ylast' (last Y value in bin); defaults to 'yavg'.
