bin data and sum values

Hi everyone! my problem is I have a vector x and a vector of values at those y for example:

   x         y
         0    0.0040
   17.8200    0.0030
   19.0700    0.0035
   19.1600    0.0028
   19.9300    2.0036
   20.5400    0.1609
   20.5700    0.0275
   20.6000    0.0023
   20.6400    0.0142
   20.6700   20.5603
   20.9600    0.0023
   21.0800    0.0193
   21.1200    0.0098
   21.2100   31.5333
   21.3100    0.0023
   21.3400    0.0012
   21.3700    0.0054
   21.5000    0.0029
   21.6000   15.7993
bins = [0;3.5;6;8;10;12;14;16;18;20;22;24;26;28;30;32;36;44;48;50;60];
[counts] = histc(x,bins);
figure=bar(bins,counts,'histc');

That is what I initially did but I also need for each bin to sum the corresponding y values and at the end create a bar graph showing total y for each bin of x. Any ideas??

 [counts,idx] = histc(x,bins);
 t = accumarray(idx,y,[size(bins,1),1]);

Thank you for your help Roger! it does exactly what i asked for!

How would it work if i have to bin data for a particular date range?

For example range : - weekday 12/06/2017 20:00 to 13/06/2017 08:00 and repeat this for every weekday. Weekend 9/06/2017 20:00 to 12/06/2017 08:00. Sum up all the values in the bin.
