You should not override the builtin set() type [1] as you've done here by assigning it.

I am not familiar with matplotlib, etc. but given that the primary difference in your two code samples is where you write the data, I suspect you want something like:

        ax.plot(P.hist(VGSR[set],bins=30, normed=True))

Take care,
Don
