The tests fails on Python 3.11 only and I believe its not related to this PR. This should be ready for review. |
|
@MarcSkovMadsen Change makes good sense to me. Hopefully the tests will now pass (including 3.11) after the merge commit at which point I am happy to see this merge. |
|
Looks like all tests are now green! |

Addresses hvplot/#998 by providing an error message if the user tries to create a
histogramfrom categorical data.Before the user would get the error message
numpy.core._exceptions._UFuncNoLoopError: ufunc 'multiply' did not contain a loop with signature matching types (dtype('<U1'), dtype('float64')) -> NoneThis is not an error message that a new user to python and plotting would be able to make sense of. It takes a long time to realize that theoretically a histogram is for numerical data only. For example users can find plotly express examples of creating "histograms" from categorical data. In their documentation its the second example you see. I think they realized this is a very common use case.
