A RooCurve is a one-dimensional graphical representation of a real-valued function.
A curve is approximated by straight line segments with endpoints chosen to give
a "good" approximation to the true curve. The goodness of the approximation is
controlled by a precision and a resolution parameter. To view the points where
a function y(x) is actually evaluated to approximate a smooth curve, use:
**/
//  RooPlot *p= y.plotOn(x.frame());
//  p->getAttMarker("curve_y")->SetMarkerStyle(20);
//  p->setDrawOptions("curve_y","PL");
//  p->Draw();
//
