I am trying to compute the integral of my data by running the following script:
auto graph = new TGraphErrors("./true_spectra_110deg_28.txt","%lg %lg %lg %lg");
graph->SetTitle("Compton Scattering for CS-137 (Actual-Background 110 Degrees); Energy (keV); Number of Photons");
graph->SetMarkerStyle(8);
graph->SetMarkerSize(.5);
graph->SetMarkerColor(1);
graph->GetYaxis()->SetTitleOffset(1.3);
graph->Draw("PEASAME"); //PEASame
cout<<graph->Integral(24,1622)<<endl; //16825.4
cout<<graph->Integral(24,400)<<endl; //4661.11
cout<<graph->Integral(401,1600)<<endl; //30675.6
I don’t know why I get the values that are in the comments, it doesn’t make any sense when looking at the data. My objective is to simply integrate the data, but I don’t know if this script gives the right result. Any suggestions are much appreciated.
