imhist(), as you called it, will display the histogram only. It will not return the histogram bin values. However, you immediately cover it up with the image so that the histogram can no longer be shown. Try this:
baseFileName = 'violet.bmp';
fullFileName = fullfile(pwd, baseFileName);
if exist(fullFileName)
rgbImage = imread(fullFileName);
grayImage= rgb2gray(rgbImage);
[pixelCounts grayLevels] = imhist(grayImage, 256);
bar(grayLevels, pixelCounts);
xlim([0 255]);
uiwait(msgbox('Click OK to see the image'));
imshow(grayImage);
else
warningMessage = sprintf('Error: file not found\n%s', fullFileName);
uiwait(warndlg(warningMessage));
end
