Plot a histogram with automatic bin width selection, using the Scott or Freedman–Diaconis formulae.

hist.scott(x, prob = TRUE, xlab = deparse(substitute(x)), ...)
hist.FD(x, prob = TRUE, xlab = deparse(substitute(x)), ...)

`x`	A data vector
`prob`	Should the plot have unit area, so be a density estimate?
`xlab, ...`	Further arguments to `hist`.

For the nclass.* functions, the suggested number of classes.
