Maximum Bin Content

ROOT

I was wondering, what is the maximum number of entries in a single bin?

Thanks,

Sam

Hi Sam,

i believe it depends on what type of histogram you’re using:
if it is e.g. THC - then maximum bin content is 2^8-1=255 for every dimension, if it is THI - it is 2^31-1=2.147483647E+9. In case of THF or THD it is even more I guess. You can check this out on first page of ROOT histograms manual.
