what is a stacked histogram?
a stacked histogram is a graphical representation that displays the distribution of different groups of data on top of each other. each group is represented by a different color, and the heights of the bars represent the frequency or count of the data points.

libraries required
to create a stacked histogram, you need the following libraries:
- `matplotlib`: for plotting.
- `numpy`: for numerical operations (optional, but commonly used for generating sample data).

you can install these libraries using pip if you haven't already:
