Example Macros

First understanding, and then writing ROOT macros is the probably the easiest way to start to learn to use the MINOS OO software. To help in the first of these steps there is some example macros here in which each statement can be studied in terms of:-

The C++ syntax and the OO Concepts
The MINOS Class library
The ROOT Class library

The macro to be studied are:-

geteventmacro.C
loopmacro.C

Clicking on the * at the start of each line will lead to an explanation in terms of:-

Statement Analysis
CINT Shortcuts
ROOT Environment

Having studied it, take a look at other example macros, which are currently to be found on:-

$MINFAST/*.C

Caution: Not all the .C files are macros! George, perhaps we need a macros directory?
