RooHistError is a singleton class used to calculate the error bars for each bin of a RooHist object.

Errors are calculated by integrating a specified area of a Poisson or Binomail error distribution.

◆ createBinomialSum()

RooAbsFunc * RooHistError::createBinomialSum	(	Int_t	n,
		Int_t	m,
		Bool_t	eff
	)

static

Create and return a BinomialSum function binding.

Definition at line 343 of file RooHistError.cxx.

◆ createPoissonSum()

RooAbsFunc * RooHistError::createPoissonSum ( Int_t n )

static

Create and return a PoissonSum function binding.

Definition at line 334 of file RooHistError.cxx.

◆ getBinomialIntervalAsym()

Bool_t RooHistError::getBinomialIntervalAsym	(	Int_t	n,
		Int_t	m,
		Double_t &	asym1,
		Double_t &	asym2,
		Double_t	nSigma = `1`
	)		const

Return 'nSigma' binomial confidence interval for (n,m).

The result is return in asym1 and asym2. If the return values is kFALSE and error occurred.

Definition at line 133 of file RooHistError.cxx.

◆ getBinomialIntervalEff()

Bool_t RooHistError::getBinomialIntervalEff	(	Int_t	n,
		Int_t	m,
		Double_t &	asym1,
		Double_t &	asym2,
		Double_t	nSigma = `1`
	)		const

Return 'nSigma' binomial confidence interval for (n,m).

The result is return in asym1 and asym2. If the return values is kFALSE and error occurred.

Definition at line 196 of file RooHistError.cxx.

◆ getInterval()

Bool_t RooHistError::getInterval	(	const RooAbsFunc *	Qu,
		const RooAbsFunc *	Ql,
		Double_t	pointEstimate,
		Double_t	stepSize,
		Double_t &	lo,
		Double_t &	hi,
		Double_t	nSigma
	)		const

Calculate a confidence interval using the cumulative functions provided.

The interval will be "central" when both cumulative functions are provided, unless this would exclude the pointEstimate, in which case a one-sided interval pinned at the point estimate is returned instead.

Definition at line 263 of file RooHistError.cxx.

◆ getPoissonInterval()

Bool_t RooHistError::getPoissonInterval	(	Int_t	n,
		Double_t &	mu1,
		Double_t &	mu2,
		Double_t	nSigma = `1`
	)		const

Return a confidence interval for the expected number of events given n observed (unweighted) events.

The interval will contain the same probability as nSigma of a Gaussian. Uses a central interval unless this does not enclose the point estimate n (ie, for small n) in which case the interval is adjusted to start at n. This method uses a lookup table to return precalculated results for n<1000

Definition at line 79 of file RooHistError.cxx.

◆ getPoissonIntervalCalc()

Bool_t RooHistError::getPoissonIntervalCalc	(	Int_t	n,
		Double_t &	mu1,
		Double_t &	mu2,
		Double_t	nSigma = `1`
	)		const

private

Calculate a confidence interval for the expected number of events given n observed (unweighted) events.

The interval will contain the same probability as nSigma of a Gaussian. Uses a central interval unless this does not enclose the point estimate n (ie, for small n) in which case the interval is adjusted to start at n.

◆ instance()

const RooHistError & RooHistError::instance ( )

static

Return a reference to a singleton object that is created the first time this method is called.

Only one object will be constructed per ROOT session.

◆ seek()

Double_t RooHistError::seek	(	const RooAbsFunc &	f,
		Double_t	startAt,
		Double_t	step,
		Double_t	value
	)		const

private

Scan f(x)-value until it changes sign.

Start at the specified point and take constant steps of the specified size. Give up after 1000 steps.
