//
//   Example of a program to fit non-equidistant data points
//   =======================================================
//
//   The fitting function fcn is a simple chisquare function
//   The data consists of 5 data points (arrays x,y,z) + the errors in errorsz
//   More details on the various functions or parameters for these functions
//   can be obtained in an interactive ROOT session with:
//    Root > TMinuit *minuit = new TMinuit(10);
//    Root > minuit->mnhelp("*")  to see the list of possible keywords
//    Root > minuit->mnhelp("SET") explains most parameters
