Hi all, it seems that kolmogorov test does not work for me on weighted histograms. Here is the macro: { gROOT->Reset() ; TH1* h1 = new TH1F("h1","Gauss",200,-5,5); TH1* h2 = new TH1F("h2","Gauss",200,-5,5); TH1* h3 = new TH1F("h3","Gauss",200,-5,5); TH1* h4 = new TH1F("h4","Gauss",200,-5,5); int j ; double xs1, xs2 ; h1->Reset() ; h2->Reset() ; for ( j=0; j<10000; ++j ) { xs1 = gRandom->Gaus(0,1); xs2 = gRandom->Gaus(0,1); h1->Fill(xs1); h2->Fill(xs2); } for ( j = 1 ; j<= 200; ++j ) { h3->SetBinContent( j, h1->GetBinContent( j ) / 100 ) ; h3->SetBinError( j, h1->GetBinError( j ) / 100 ) ; h4->SetBinContent( j, h2->GetBinContent( j ) / 100 ) ; h4->SetBinError( j, h2->GetBinError( j ) / 100 ) ; } h1->KolmogorovTest(h2,"D") ; h3->KolmogorovTest(h4,"D") ; } And here its output: Kolmo Prob h1 = h1, sum1=10000 Kolmo Prob h2 = h2, sum2=10000 Kolmo Probabil = 0.366721, Max Dist = 0.013 Kolmo Prob h1 = h3, sum1=100 Kolmo Prob h2 = h4, sum2=100 Kolmo Probabil = 1, Max Dist = 0.013 I'd expect that probabilities be equal for h1/h2 and h3/h4. What gives? This was obtained in 2.25/03. Also probably related question. Should the probability from KolmogorovTest have flat distibution? When I try call it many times for the above gaussian histograms I observe an exess for prob close to 1. Cheers, Andy.
