A histogram records a count of the number of pixels that fall within a certain range of values. For example, if your image has 16 bits/channel/pixel, values are between 0 and 65535. You can have 65536 buckets if you want, with just one value per bucket, but you wouldn't draw that image -- it would be 65536 pixels wide.

Perhaps he means just even or odd pixels from the image? That could be done by using -sample 50% for one and -roll +1+1 -sample 50% for the the other. I am not sure if -sample 50% starts at 0,0 or 1,1.
