changing default x range in histogram matplotlib

Question

I would like to change the default x range for the histogram plot  The range of the data is from 7 to 12  However  by default the histogram starts right at 7 and ends at 13  I want it to start at 6 5 and end at 12 5  However  the ticks should go from 7 to 12 How do I do it    import asciitable  import numpy as np import matplotlib pyplot as plt import matplotlib mlab as mlab import pylab from pylab import xticks  data   asciitable read file  hmag   data  col8   visits   data  col14   origin   data  col13     n  bins  patches   plt hist hmag  30  facecolor  gray   align  mid   xticks range 7 13   pylab rc  axes   linewidth 8 0  pylab rc  lines   markeredgewidth 2 0   plt xlabel  H mag   fontsize 14  plt ylabel    of targets   fontsize 14  pylab xticks fontsize 15  pylab yticks fontsize 15  plt grid True  plt savefig  hmag histogram eps   facecolor  w   edgecolor  w   format  eps   plt show

the following code is for making the same y axis limit on two subplots  f  ax   plt subplots 1 2 figsize    30  13  gridspec kw   width ratios    5  1    df plot ax   ax 0   linewidth   2 5  ylim    lower limit upper limit  ax 0  set ylim ylim  ax 1  hist data normed  1  bins   num bin  color    yellow   alpha   1   ax 1  set ylim ylim    just a reminder  plt hist range  low  high   the histogram auto crops the range if the specified range is larger than the max amp min of the data points  So if you want to specify the y-axis range number  i prefer to use set ylim
