Thin bars in R hist !!??

Hi,

I am trying to plot a histogram with my dataset that has 68 elements, 67 of
which are zero and the last one is 18. It can be reproduced as follows:

x<-array(0, dim=(68))
x[1] = 18
I am trying to plot its histogram using:

hist(x, breaks=10, xlim=c(0, 100), axes=F)
axis(2, at=seq(0, 70, 5))      #  for the y-axis
axis(1, at=seq(0, 100, 10))  # for the x-axis

As you would also see if you reproduced the plot, the bars become really
thin. I would very much appreciate any help on fixing this issue. Thanks so
much in advance!
