    Would you mind providing a snippet of code which reproduces the graph ?

Based on the piece of code you provided, this snippet below should achieve what you want. The idea is to provide manually the bins location, set the width of each bar and align everything left. More information here.



import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy
columnList =
for i in range(32):
columnList.append('Asia')
for i in range(58):
columnList.append('Europe')
for i in range(18):
columnList.append('North America')
for i in range(12):
columnList.append('Central ornSouth America')
for i in range(7):
columnList.append('Australia ornOceania')
n, bins, patches = plt.hist(x=columnList, bins=numpy.arange(6), rwidth=0.5,
align='left')
plt.grid(axis='y', alpha=0.75)
plt.xlabel('Continents')
plt.ylabel('Frequency')
plt.title('Continental Distribution of respondents')
plt.show()
