Bugs with root-6.02 and 5-34 documentation/primer/macros

  1. In macro6,
    replace exp_h->Fill(…); with bkg_h->Fill(…);

  2. in macro9,
    add void type before the pull function of toy MC

Hi,

thanks for the comment: it’s in the repository
root.cern.ch/gitweb?p=root.git; … 59737f89bc

Cheers,

Note that the same problems appear in ROOT v5-34.

Thanks Danilo and Wile,
Do you guys know a more systematic way of learning Root? I am studying the Primer Guide but it seems it is not including everything and some things are even more advanced for me. At some point I learned to write the following Mathematica code to calculate some function of double integrals numerically. However, as you all know Mathematica is not compatible with complicated calculation (It takes at least two hours to run the following especially if you are not an advanced user). Here is the code and I need some help of doing that in Root. I have seen that there are numerical codes in root but how to complicate those already existing codes into something such complicated? By the way, I am not an Advanced C++ user. But, I am trying to be better in it.


F[u_] = Some nontrivial and long expression in terms of u;

Umax[x_, y_] = Some expression in terms of x and y;

W[x_, y_] := integral of F[u] for u=0..Umax

g[x_ , y_] = Some other expression in terms of x and y;

Alpha[x_] = Some function of x only;

myFunction[x_?NumericQ] := NIntegrat[g[x, y]*W[x,y],{y, Alpha[x], 1}];

Plot[myFunction[x], {x,0,1}]

HI Ashur,

you can give a look to the “Mathematical Libraries” session here:
root.cern.ch/drupal/content/documentation
and to the users’ guide here:
root.cern.ch/root/htmldoc/guide … aries.html
and to the tutorials here, to focus more on examples:
root.cern.ch/root/html528/tutor … index.html

As for the C++ learning, I can imagine some hurdles for someone coming from something like Mathematica, but in my experience the effort has always been rewarding, especially in terms of productivity.

Cheers,
Danilo

Thank You,

I am typing the following code directly into Root:

gSystem->Load("libRooFit") ;
using namespace RooFit ;

// --- Observable ---
RooRealVar mes("mes","m_{ES} (GeV)",5.20,5.30) ;
 
// --- Parameters ---
RooRealVar sigmean("sigmean","B^{#pm} mass",5.28,5.20,5.30) ;
RooRealVar sigwidth("sigwidth","B^{#pm} width",0.0027,0.001,1.) ;
 
// --- Build Gaussian PDF ---
RooGaussian signal("signal","signal PDF",mes,sigmean,sigwidth) ;

// --- Build Argus background PDF ---
RooRealVar argpar("argpar","argus shape parameter",-20.0,-100.,-1.) ;
RooArgusBG background("background","Argus PDF",mes,RooConst(5.291),argpar) ;
 
// --- Construct signal+background PDF ---
RooRealVar nsig("nsig","#signal events",200,0.,10000) ;
RooRealVar nbkg("nbkg","#background events",800,0.,10000) ;
RooAddPdf model("model","g+a",RooArgList(signal,background),RooArgList(nsig,nbkg)) ;

// --- Generate a toyMC sample from composite PDF ---
RooDataSet *data = model.generate(mes,2000) ;
 
// --- Perform extended ML fit of composite PDF to toy data ---
model.fitTo(*data) ;
 
// --- Plot toy data and composite PDF overlaid ---
RooPlot* mesframe = mes.frame() ;
data->plotOn(mesframe) ;
model.plotOn(mesframe) ;
model.plotOn(mesframe,Components(argus),LineStyle(kDashed)) ;

The last line of code gives me this error message:

[quote]ROOT_prompt_17:1:51: error: cannot take the address of an rvalue of

How to fix the issue?

“Roo*” questions belong to the “Stat and Math Tool Support” forum.

However the second method “The Workspace” right after the first method is working except that we need to make sure the w() is not the same rvalue w which is the parameter of w(). So, I named the parameter w1 in order to make sure that they are not identical and in the subsequent steps each time you want to point to w will be changed to pointing to w1 parameter. So, you would have w1:: instead of w::

Hi,

in your code, the variable called argus is not declared.

Axel.

Oops. I will try it later.

How would you do it? It is not working!

Hi,

I don’t know, depends on what argus is supposed to be. You are not declaring it nor setting it to any value - I don’t know what to say here.

Axel.

Here is my code:

I am compile and run it using the command line:

I am having error message:

I cannot see the problem and I would appreciate your help.

std::pow
std::log

Thanks dear Wile, it worked!

Is there anyway to avoid seeing negative y-values on the plot?

I was able to do so through the Canvas directly rather than adding more lines of code. I hope this is what usually people do.

I am trying to find some source codes in root or any other software written in C++ able to solve a system of differential equations simultaneously. Here is the only link I found in this website which has some small relevance to the topic but it is way too complicated for me to link it to my special need.

https://root.cern.ch/drupal/content/how-call-cernlib-routines-interpreter

Does anyone knows a better source code to do so?

please create a new post on the forum … you are asking to many different questions under the same thread.
