arrange multiple 2D histograms in 3D

I am wondering how I can draw this figure with Matlab. Please help!

You can use the hist function to plot one histogram, then grab its vertices from the resulting patch object. Pass these vertices to the patch function and add a Z component to it. Like this:

hist(randn(100,1));
h = get(gca,'Children'); 
x = h.Vertices(:,1);
y = h.Vertices(:,2);
z = 3*ones(size(x));
close all
hist(randn(100,1)+2);
h = get(gca,'Children');
x2 = h.Vertices(:,1);
y2 = h.Vertices(:,2);
z2 = 6*ones(size(x2));
close all;
patch(x,y,z, 'r'); hold on; patch(x2,y2,z2, 'b'); view(3)
% now rotate as desired
