Good Morning for all!

I’m computing a data from GAMOS in root tree. And so I used the makeclass to run the code for do an histogram (attached). But something strange happens. In the histogram the entries is 2.010533e7 but when I use the file sumpHistoToTxt.C the values of all entries gives me 1.77838e+07.

Could help me? I can’t understand where exacttly was the mistake.

Thanks

God bless you all

If you have so many entries, do not use TH1F but TH1D to avoid truncation errors happening when bin counts are larger than ~ 1.E7 !

Note also that the number of entries could contain also underflow or overflow which are counted in the integral

Thanks @moneta, for the reply!

I will change this and report here what happens. There was some way to avoid this underor overflow?

best regards!

@moneta, I have done what you said but and I run again the file dumpHistoToTxt.C was an error:

How can I fix this?

Thanks

Hi David,

maybe instead of

TH1D *tr; f->GetObject("energy", tr);

you can try

TH1D* tr = static_cast<TH1D*>(f->Get("energy"));
if (!tr)
{
    printf("ERROR: no \"energy\" histogram found in the .root file\n");
    return;
}

Thanks, @yus!

It seems to work now! I will just run some test to certifed that is all right.

Best regards
