interpretation of bins in matplotlib hist

What is the interpretation of the bins argument to matplotlib.hist if it is a sequence? Is it the same as numpy's bins argument?

Yes, it is the same. It defines the number of intervals for your data. Giving a sequence allows you to have unequally large bins, both in numpy and matplotlib. You'll find detailed help on this in numpy's and matplotlib's documentation of the hist command.
