// -- CLASS DESCRIPTION [REAL] --
// RooRealConstant provides static functions to create and keep track
// of RooRealVar constants. Instead of creating such constants by
// hand (e.g. RooRealVar one("one","one",1)), simply use
//
//  RooRealConstant::value(1.0)
//
// whenever a reference to RooRealVar with constant value 1.0 is needed.
// RooRealConstant keeps an internal database of previously created
// RooRealVar objects and will recycle them as appropriate.
