How do I get the average value in my histogram bins

I have a large data set of sample points plotted, 2500x2500, and I put these into a histogram using histogram(dist,'BinWidth',60). How can I get the average values of the data in these bins? Or how can I get the values that are in these bins so I can get the average value in each bin?

Do you need the results per row (or per column), or can dist be treated as a vector of values for this purpose (histogram over the entire array simultaneously) ?

Try this:

dist = 2000 * rand(2500, 2500);
hObj = histogram(dist,'BinWidth',60)
grid on;
yticks([0:5000:200000]);
% Compute the mean value of the original data.
meanDataValue = mean(dist(:))
% Compute the mean number of counts in each bin.
meanBinCounts = mean(hObj.Values)
