I think I cannot replace it with a TOTAL/CUMULATIVE command, because
the histogram I have to sum contains the frequencies of the points of
the 2D array and these frequencies cannot be summed up before being
transformed in points as I do in the while loop. I may be wrong, but I
cannot find an easy way to cancel the loop (although I'm sure most of
you can!).
In any case, the code was slightly wrong, because I didn't consider the
k increment at the end of the while loops, so that the maxlevel should
read:

maxlevel=histoden[n_histo-k] * (maxvalue-k+1)

Thanks,

Stefano
