heller3/wh_draw

Parallel, looped, string-based plotting

wh_draw

Repository for plotting and table-making utilities combining the flexibility of analysis_code's simple and flexible string-based plotting with the speed of ra4_macros' "looping" scripts.

Code documentation

Doxygen-based documentation is available at Adam's UCSB-HEP webpage.

Setup and compilation

Compilation requires c++11 and ROOT, but not CMSSW. To compile, simply run

./compile.py

Making histograms

An example script is available under src/test.cxx. To execute, compile and then run

./run/core/test.exe

Another example for WH is here: ./run/wh/plot_datamc.exe

Adding branches

The list of branches available for plotting must be specified in txt/variables/full

Then, at compile-time, a baby file will be generated to load/set addresses for all of the variables listed. Modifying this file should cause the whole repository to be recompiled.
