Class Description

                                                                      
 TTree                                                                
                                                                      
  a TTree object has a header with a name and a title.
  It consists of a list of independent branches (TBranch). Each branch
  has its own definition and list of buffers. Branch buffers may be
  automatically written to disk or kept in memory until the Tree attribute
  fMaxVirtualSize is reached.
  Variables of one branch are written to the same buffer.
  A branch buffer is automatically compressed if the file compression
  attribute is set (default).

  Branches may be written to different files (see TBranch::SetFile).

  The ROOT user can decide to make one single branch and serialize one
  object into one single I/O buffer or to make several branches.
  Making one single branch and one single buffer can be the right choice
  when one wants to process only a subset of all entries in the tree.
  (you know for example the list of entry numbers you want to process).
  Making several branches is particularly interesting in the data analysis
  phase, when one wants to histogram some attributes of an object (entry)
  without reading all the attributes.

/*

*/


  ==> TTree *tree = new TTree(name, title, maxvirtualsize)
     Creates a Tree with name and title. Maxvirtualsize is by default 64Mbytes,
     maxvirtualsize = 64000000(default) means: Keeps as many buffers in memory until
     the sum of all buffers is greater than 64 Megabyte. When this happens,
     memory buffers are written to disk and deleted until the size of all
     buffers is again below the threshold.
     maxvirtualsize = 0 means: keep only one buffer in memory.

     Various kinds of branches can be added to a tree:
       A - simple structures or list of variables. (may be for C or Fortran structures)
       B - any object (inheriting from TObject). (we expect this option be the most frequent)
       C - a ClonesArray. (a specialized object for collections of same class objects)

  ==> Case A
      ======
     TBranch *branch = tree->Branch(branchname,address, leaflist, bufsize)
       * address is the address of the first item of a structure
       * leaflist is the concatenation of all the variable names and types
         separated by a colon character :
         The variable name and the variable type are separated by a slash (/).
         The variable type may be 0,1 or 2 characters. If no type is given,
         the type of the variable is assumed to be the same as the previous
         variable. If the first variable does not have a type, it is assumed
         of type F by default. The list of currently supported types is given below:
            - C : a character string terminated by the 0 character
            - B : an 8 bit signed integer (Char_t)
            - b : an 8 bit unsigned integer (UChar_t)
            - S : a 16 bit signed integer (Short_t)
            - s : a 16 bit unsigned integer (UShort_t)
            - I : a 32 bit signed integer (Int_t)
            - i : a 32 bit unsigned integer (UInt_t)
            - F : a 32 bit floating point (Float_t)
            - D : a 64 bit floating point (Double_t)

  ==> Case B
      ======
     TBranch *branch = tree->Branch(branchname,className,object, bufsize, splitlevel)
          object is the address of a pointer to an existing object (derived from TObject).
        if splitlevel=1 (default), this branch will automatically be split
          into subbranches, with one subbranch for each data member or object
          of the object itself. In case the object member is a TClonesArray,
          the mechanism described in case C is applied to this array.
        if splitlevel=0, the object is serialized in the branch buffer.

  ==> Case C
      ======
     TBranch *branch = tree->Branch(branchname,clonesarray, bufsize, splitlevel)
         clonesarray is the address of a pointer to a TClonesArray.
         The TClonesArray is a direct access list of objects of the same class.
         For example, if the TClonesArray is an array of TTrack objects,
         this function will create one subbranch for each data member of
         the object TTrack.


  ==> branch->SetAddress(Void *address)
      In case of dynamic structures changing with each entry for example, one must
      redefine the branch address before filling the branch again.
      This is done via the TBranch::SetAddress member function.

  ==> tree->Fill()
      loops on all defined branches and for each branch invokes the Fill function.

TTree(): TNamed()

*-*                  ========================

TTree(const Text_t *name,const Text_t *title, Int_t maxvirtualsize) :TNamed(name,title)
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*Normal Tree constructor*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
*-*                ======================

   The Tree is created in the current directory
   Use the various functions Branch below to add branches to this Tree.

~TTree()
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*Tree destructor*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
*-*                  =================

void AutoSave()
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*AutoSave tree header every fAutoSave bytes*-*-*-*-*-*
*-*                  ==========================================

   When large Trees are produced, it is safe to activate the AutoSave
   procedure. Some branches may have buffers holding many entries.
   AutoSave is automatically called by TTree::Fill when the number of bytes
   generated since the previous AutoSave is greater than fAutoSave bytes.
   This function may also be invoked by the user, for example every
   N entries.
   Each AutoSave generates a new key on the file.

   In case your program crashes before closing the file holding this tree,
   the file will be automatically recovered when you will connect the file
   in UPDATE mode.
   The Tree will be recovered at the status corresponding to the last AutoSave.


TBranch* Branch(const Text_t *name, void *address, const Text_t *leaflist,Int_t bufsize)
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*Create a new TTree Branch*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
*-*                  =========================

     This Branch constructor is provided to support non-objects in
     a Tree. The variables described in leaflist may be simple variables
     or structures.
    See the two following constructors for writing objects in a Tree.

    By default the branch buffers are stored in the same file as the Tree.
    use TBranch::SetFile to specify a different file

TBranch* Branch(const Text_t *name, const Text_t *classname, void *addobj, Int_t bufsize, Int_t splitlevel)
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*Create a new TTree BranchObject*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
*-*                  ===============================

    Build a TBranchObject for an object of class classname.
    addobj is the address of a pointer to an object of class classname.
    IMPORTANT: classname must derive from TObject.

    This option requires access to the library where the corresponding class
    is defined. Accessing one single data member in the object implies
    reading the full object.
    See the next Branch constructor for a more efficient storage
    in case the entry consists of arrays of identical objects.

    By default the branch buffers are stored in the same file as the Tree.
    use TBranch::SetFile to specify a different file

TBranch* Branch(const Text_t *name, void *clonesaddress, Int_t bufsize, Int_t splitlevel)
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*Create a new TTree BranchClones*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
*-*                  ===============================

    name:    global name of this BranchClones
    bufsize: buffersize in bytes of each individual data member buffer
    clonesaddress is the address of a pointer to a TClonesArray.

    This Tree option is provided in case each entry consists of one
    or more arrays of same class objects (tracks, hits,etc).
    This function creates as many branches as there are public data members
    in the objects pointed by the TClonesArray. Note that these data members
    can be only basic data types, not pointers or objects.

    BranchClones have the following advantages compared to the two other
    solutions (Branch and BranchObject).
      - When reading the Tree data, it is possible to read selectively
        a subset of one object (may be just one single data member).
      - This solution minimizes the number of objects created/destructed.
      - Data members of the same type are consecutive in the basket buffers,
        therefore optimizing the compression algorithm.
      - Array processing notation becomes possible in the query language.

    By default the branch buffers are stored in the same file as the Tree.
    use TBranch::SetFile to specify a different file

void Browse(TBrowser *b)

void BuildIndex(const char *majorname, const char *minorname)
 Build an index table using the leaves with name: major & minor name
 The index is built in the following way:
    A pass on all entries is made using TTree::Draw
    var1 = majorname
    var2 = minorname
    sel  = majorname +minorname*1e-9
    The standard result from TTree::Draw is stored in fV1, fV2 and fW
    Thew array fW is sorted into fIndex
  Once the index is computed, one can retrieve one entry via
    TTree:GetEntryWithIndex(majornumber, minornumber)
 Example:
  tree.BuildIndex("Run","Event"); //creates an index using leaves Run and Event
  tree.GetEntryWithIndex(1234,56789); //reads entry corresponding to
                                        Run=1234 and Event=56789

 Note that once the index is built, it can be saved with the TTree object
 with tree.Write(); //if the file has been open in "update" mode.

 The most convenient place to create the index is at the end of
 the filling process just before saving the Tree header.
 If a previous index was computed, it is redefined by this new call.

 Note that this function can also be applied to a TChain.

void ClearFormula()
*-*-*-*-*-*-*Delete internal buffers*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
*-*          =======================

TTree* CloneTree(Int_t nentries)
 Create a clone of this tree and copy nentries
 By default copy all entries

 IMPORTANT: Before invoking this function, the branch addresses
            of this TTree must have been set.
 For examples of CloneTree, see tutorials
  -copytree:
    Example of Root macro to copy a subset of a Tree to a new Tree
    The input file has been generated by the program in $ROOTSYS/test/Event
    with   Event 1000 1 1 1
  -copytree2:
    Example of Root macro to copy a subset of a Tree to a new Tree
    One branch of the new Tree is written to a separate file
    The input file has been generated by the program in $ROOTSYS/test/Event
    with   Event 1000 1 1 1

void CompileVariables(const Text_t *varexp, const Text_t *selection)
*-*-*-*-*-*-*Compile input variables and selection expression*-*-*-*-*-*
*-*          ================================================

  varexp is an expression of the general form e1:e2:e3
    where e1,etc is a formula referencing a combination of the columns
  Example:
     varexp = x     simplest case: draw a 1-Dim distribution of column named x
            = sqrt(x)            : draw distribution of sqrt(x)
            = x*y/z
            = y:sqrt(x) 2-Dim dsitribution of y versus sqrt(x)

  selection is an expression with a combination of the columns
  Example:
      selection = "x<y && sqrt(z)>3.2"
       in a selection all the C++ operators are authorized



Int_t CopyEntries(TTree *tree, Int_t nentries)
 Copy nentries from tree to this tree
 By default copy all entries
 Return number of bytes copied to this tree.

void CreatePacketGenerator(Int_t nentries, Stat_t firstEntry)
 Create or reset the packet generator.

void Draw(TCut varexp, TCut selection, Option_t *option, Int_t nentries, Int_t firstentry)
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*Draw expression varexp for specified entries-*-*-*-*-*
*-*                  ===========================================

      This function accepts TCut objects as arguments.
      Useful to use the string operator +
         example:
            ntuple.Draw("x",cut1+cut2+cut3);


void Draw(const Text_t *varexp0, const Text_t *selection, Option_t *option,Int_t nentries, Int_t firstentry)
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*Draw expression varexp for specified entries-*-*-*-*-*
*-*                  ===========================================

  varexp is an expression of the general form e1:e2:e3
    where e1,etc is a formula referencing a combination of the columns
  Example:
     varexp = x     simplest case: draw a 1-Dim distribution of column named x
            = sqrt(x)            : draw distribution of sqrt(x)
            = x*y/z
            = y:sqrt(x) 2-Dim dsitribution of y versus sqrt(x)
  Note that the variables e1, e2 or e3 may contain a selection.
  example, if e1= x*(y<0), the value histogrammed will be x if y<0
  and will be 0 otherwise.

  selection is an expression with a combination of the columns.
  In a selection all the C++ operators are authorized.
  The value corresponding to the selection expression is used as a weight
  to fill the histogram.
  If the expression includes only boolean operations, the result
  is 0 or 1. If the result is 0, the histogram is not filled.
  In general, the expression may be of the form:
      value*(boolean expression)
  if boolean expression is true, the histogram is filled with
  a weight = value.
  Examples:
      selection1 = "x<y && sqrt(z)>3.2"
      selection2 = "(x+y)*(sqrt(z)>3.2"
  selection1 returns a weigth = 0 or 1
  selection2 returns a weight = x+y if sqrt(z)>3.2
             returns a weight = 0 otherwise.

  option is the drawing option
      see TH1::Draw for the list of all drawing options.
      If option contains the string "goff", no graphics is generated.

  nentries is the number of entries to process (default is all)
  first is the first entry to process (default is 0)

     Saving the result of Draw to an histogram
     =========================================
  By default the temporary histogram created is called htemp.
  If varexp0 contains >>hnew (following the variable(s) name(s),
  the new histogram created is called hnew and it is kept in the current
  directory.
  Example:
    tree.Draw("sqrt(x)>>hsqrt","y>0")
    will draw sqrt(x) and save the histogram as "hsqrt" in the current
    directory.

  By default, the specified histogram is reset.
  To continue to append data to an existing histogram, use "+" in front
  of the histogram name;
    tree.Draw("sqrt(x)>>+hsqrt","y>0")
      will not reset hsqrt, but will continue filling.

     Making a Profile histogram
     ==========================
  In case of a 2-Dim expression, one can generate a TProfile histogram
  instead of a TH2F histogram by specyfying option=prof or option=profs.
  The option=prof is automatically selected in case of y:x>>pf
  where pf is an existing TProfile histogram.

     Saving the result of Draw to a TEventList
     =========================================
  TTree::Draw can be used to fill a TEventList object (list of entry numbers)
  instead of histogramming one variable.
  If varexp0 has the form >>elist , a TEventList object named "elist"
  is created in the current directory. elist will contain the list
  of entry numbers satisfying the current selection.
  Example:
    tree.Draw(">>yplus","y>0")
    will create a TEventList object named "yplus" in the current directory.
    In an interactive session, one can type (after TTree::Draw)
       yplus.Print("all")
    to print the list of entry numbers in the list.

  By default, the specified entry list is reset.
  To continue to append data to an existing list, use "+" in front
  of the list name;
    tree.Draw(">>+yplus","y>0")
      will not reset yplus, but will enter the selected entries at the end
      of the existing list.

      Using a TEventList as Input
      ===========================
  Once a TEventList object has been generated, it can be used as input
  for TTree::Draw. Use TTree::SetEventList to set the current event list
  Example:
     TEventList *elist = (TEventList*)gDirectory->Get("yplus");
     tree->SetEventList(elist);
     tree->Draw("py");

  Note: Use tree->SetEventList(0) if you do not want use the list as input.

      How to obtain more info from TTree::Draw
      ========================================

  Once TTree::Draw has been called, it is possible to access useful
  information still stored in the TTree object via the following functions:
    -GetSelectedRows()    // return the number of entries accepted by the
                          //selection expression. In case where no selection
                          //was specified, returns the number of entries processed.
    -GetV1()              //returns a pointer to the float array of V1
    -GetV2()              //returns a pointer to the float array of V2
    -GetV3()              //returns a pointer to the float array of V3
    -GetW()               //returns a pointer to the double array of Weights
                          //where weight equal the result of the selection expression.
   where V1,V2,V3 correspond to the expressions in
   TTree::Draw("V1:V2:V3",selection);

   Example:
    Root > ntuple->Draw("py:px","pz>4");
    Root > TGraph *gr = new TGraph(ntuple->GetSelectedRows(),
                                   ntuple->GetV2(), ntuple->GetV1());
    Root > gr->Draw("ap"); //draw graph in current pad
    creates a TGraph object with a number of points corresponding to the
    number of entries selected by the expression "pz>4", the x points of the graph
    being the px values of the Tree and the y points the py values.

   Important note: By default TTree::Draw creates the arrays obtained
    with GetV1, GetV2, GetV3, GetW with a length corresponding to the
    parameter fEstimate. By default fEstimate=10000 and can be modified
    via TTree::SetEstimate. A possible recipee is to do
       tree->SetEstimate(tree->GetEntries());
    You must call SetEstimate if the expected number of selected rows
    is greater than 10000.

    You can use the option "goff" to turn off the graphics output
    of TTree::Draw in the above example.

           Automatic interface to TTree::Draw via the TTreeViewer
           ======================================================

    A complete graphical interface to this function is implemented
    in the class TTreeViewer.
    To start the TTreeViewer, three possibilities:
       - select TTree context menu item "StartViewer"
       - type the command  "TTreeViewer TV(treeName)"
       - execute statement "tree->StartViewer();"

  By default the temporary histogram created is called htemp.
  If varexp contains >>hnew , the new histogram created is called hnew
  and it is kept in the current directory.
  Example:
    tree.Fit(pol4,sqrt(x)>>hsqrt,y>0)
    will fit sqrt(x) and save the histogram as "hsqrt" in the current
    directory.
