What does visualization with histograms help in statistics/data science?

Best answer
The reason histograms are so important is because they display the $\textbf{distribution}$ of the data: where the data values fall along the range of possible values. They help us answer important questions such as: Is the data spread out or mostly concentrated in a small region? Is the data symmetrically distributed?  Is the data skewed left (a few extremely low data values) or skewed right (a few extremely high data values)?
