> [@histogram2d with logarithmic z-axis?](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/histogram2d-with-logarithmic-z-axis/9455/2):
>
> Yes in [Gadfly](http://gadflyjl.org/stable/): using RDatasets, Gadfly D = dataset("ggplot2","diamonds") p = plot(D, x=:Price, y=:Carat, Geom.histogram2d(xbincount=15, ybincount=15), Scale.color\_log10, Scale.x\_continuous(format=:plain), Guide.title("Diamonds") ) [diamonds]
