/**
 * Histogram. 
 * 
 * Calculates the histogram of an image. 
 * A histogram is the frequency distribution 
 * of the gray levels with the number of pure black values
 * displayed on the left and number of pure white values on the right. 
 * 
 * Updated 28 February, 2010.
 * Note that this sketch will behave differently on Android, 
 * since most images will no longer be full 24-bit color.
