.. class:: infomark

Each interval is binned and the average base-resolution score/coverage/density in the bigwig file is added as new columns appended at the end of the original file .

**Example**

If your original data has the following format:

+-----+-----+---+------+
|chrom|start|end|other2|
+-----+-----+---+------+

and you choose to divide each interval into 3 bins and return the mean scores of each bin, your output will look like this:

+-----+-----+---+------+-----+-----+-----+
|chrom|start|end|other2|mean1|mean2|mean3|
+-----+-----+---+------+-----+-----+-----+
