// This example illustrates several methods for computing a
// histogram [1] with Thrust.  We consider standard "dense"
// histograms, where some bins may have zero entries, as well
// as "sparse" histograms, where only the nonzero bins are
// stored.  For example, histograms for the data set
//    [2 1 0 0 2 2 1 1 1 1 4]
// which contains 2 zeros, 5 ones, and 3 twos and 1 four, is
//    [2 5 3 0 1]
// using the dense method and 
//    [(0,2), (1,5), (2,3), (4,1)]
// using the sparse method. Since there are no threes, the 
// sparse histogram representation does not contain a bin
// for that value.
//
// Note that we choose to store the sparse histogram in two
// separate arrays, one array of keys and one array of bin counts,
//    [0 1 2 4] - keys
//    [2 5 3 1] - bin counts
// This "structure of arrays" format is generally faster and
// more convenient to process than the alternative "array
// of structures" layout.
//
// The best histogramming methods depends on the application.
// If the number of bins is relatively small compared to the 
// input size, then the binary search-based dense histogram
// method is probably best.  If the number of bins is comparable
// to the input size, then the reduce_by_key-based sparse method 
// ought to be faster.  When in doubt, try both and see which
// is fastest.
