Histogram??!! How?

[sprockett]

Hi guys, i know the basics of "achieving a nice bell shaped curve/nothing shd leap off the left/right edges"

But i have a few qns..

1. What does the X axis stand for?
2. What does the Y axis stand for?
3. I know there are 4 graphs (RGB and INTENSITY) whats intensity for?

4. Assuming I have stuff going past the right side,or left side, i shd adjust my exposure until the graph is smack in the middle. WHAT if SPECIFIC colors are over exposed only? how do i bring everything to the centre?

Thanks!!
