=============================================================
Demo of the histogram (hist) function with multiple data sets
=============================================================
Plot histogram with multiple sample sets and demonstrate:
* Use of legend with multiple sample sets
* Stacked bars
* Step curve with no fill
* Data sets of different sample sizes
Selecting different bin counts and sizes can significantly affect the
shape of a histogram. The Astropy docs have a great section on how to
select these parameters:
