Description

It would be very useful to have a bar plot graphing type. My use case is I'm training a RL agent which can choose between 10 different actions for a given state, and I record the chosen actions and currently output to a TensorBoard histogram. But given that this data is inherently discretized, the histogram output isn't fit for purpose, and would make more sense with a bar plot.

Research direction

Start by locating TensorBoard’s histogram visualization and the entry point that selects graphing types. Determine how a bar plot should represent discretized action choices and how it should fit the existing visualization UI. Done means users can view this action data as a bar plot instead of a histogram, with relevant tests covering the new behavior.
