Graphing a Histogram for Simulation

I am trying to do a simulation and I am having an issue with the graph, I am trying to get a histogram graph with the most frequent occurrence happening in the middle with the other value frequences on the sides but my code is only graphing what seems to be the middle bar. I have included my code as well as an image of the type of graph I am trying to recreate.
close all
delta_cp = @(t) (-2.4433*t + 7.623) + 7.3125;
n_sims = 100000;
t_range = linspace(0, 3.1, 1000);
results = zeros(1, n_sims);
for i = 1:n_sims
t = i * t_range(end);
results(i) = delta_cp(t);
end
figure
hist(results(:,1), 50);
xlabel('Change in Center of Gravity (m)')
ylabel('Frequency')
title('Simulation Results')

How is it a distribution? You're not doing a Monte Carlo - you're not getting random numbers. Not sure what that function is. Is it a PDF or CDF or something else?
I'm attaching some Monte Carlo-related demos.
