Write the shortest program that generates a histogram (a graphical representation of the distribution of data).
Rules:
- Must generate a histogram based on the character length of the words (punctuation included) input into the program. (If a word is 4 letters long, the bar representing the number 4 increases by 1)
- Must display bar labels that correlate with the character length the bars represent.
Examples:
$ ./histogram This is a hole in one!
1 |#
2 |##
3 |
4 |###
$./histogram Extensive word length should not be very problematic.

./histogram Very long strings of words should be just as easy to generate a histogram just as short strings of words are easy to generate a histogram for.
