How can we draw Histogram and SmoothHistogram together for two data sets?. I'd like to show the first data set using Histogram, and the second using SmoothHistogram.

Here's an example:
data1 = RandomVariate[NormalDistribution[0, 1], 100];
data2 = RandomVariate[NormalDistribution[1, 1], 100];
Show[
Histogram[data1, Automatic, "PDF"],
SmoothHistogram[data2],
PlotRange -> All
]
The important bits are:
- using
"PDF"for the histogram to match the smooth histogram in height (otherwise the histogram will show counts, and completely dwarf the other plot). - using
ShowwithPlotRange -> Allto combine the plots, and make sure each part is shown completely.
