// Create a histogram chart and specify its location.
Chart chart = worksheet.Charts.Add(ChartType.Histogram, worksheet["B2:B21"]);
chart.TopLeftCell = worksheet.Cells["D2"];
chart.BottomRightCell = worksheet.Cells["K18"];

// Specify histogram series options.
var options = chart.Series[0].LayoutOptions.Histogram;
options.BinType = HistogramBinType.BinCount;
// Specify the number of bins.
options.BinCount = 4;
// Specify the gap width.
chart.Series[0].GapWidth = 10;

// Add the chart title.
chart.Title.Visible = true;
chart.Title.SetValue("Exam Score Distribution");

VB.NET

chart.BottomRightCell = worksheet.Cells("K18")

' Specify histogram series options.
Dim options As HistogramSeriesOptions = chart.Series(0).LayoutOptions.Histogram
options.BinType = HistogramBinType.BinCount
' Specify the number of bins.
options.BinCount = 4
' Specify the gap width.
chart.Series(0).GapWidth = 10

' Add the chart title.
chart.Title.Visible = True
chart.Title.SetValue("Exam Score Distribution")
