binning a distribution of real numbers...

Hello,

I have a casual distribution of real number between two values (say
zero and one) and I would like to create an histogram, in which I can
have (say) ten bins, first one counting the number of points between 0
and 0.1, the second counting points between 0.1 and 0.2, and so on.

I've checked the documentation concerning hystogram, but it's not yet
clear to me if there is an easy way to obtain the values that I need
for this plot.. is it possibile within the context of the histogram
command?

Thanks in advance for any hint,

Marco
