Detailed Description

A macro to demonstrate the functionality of TGraph::Apply() method.

TGraph::Apply applies a function f to all the data TGraph points, f may be a 1-D function TF1 or 2-d function TF2. The Y values of the graph are replaced by the new values computed using the function.

The Apply() method can be used as well for TGraphErrors and TGraphAsymmErrors.

 
void gr005_apply() {
 
   const Int_t npoints=3;
   Double_t xaxis[npoints] = {1.,2.,3.};
   Double_t yaxis[npoints] = {10.,20.,30.};
 
   TGraph *gr1 = new TGraph(npoints,xaxis,yaxis);
   TF2 *ff = new TF2("ff","-1./y"); //Defining the function `f`
 
   TCanvas *c1 = new TCanvas("c1","c1", 0,0,700,500);
   c1->Divide(2,1);
 
   c1->cd(1);
   gr1->DrawClone("A*"); //Using DrawClone to create a copy of the graph in the canvas.
   c1->cd(2);
   gr1->Apply(ff); //Applies the function `f` to all the data TGraph points
   gr1->Draw("A*"); 
   /* Without DrawClone, the modifications to gr1 via Apply(ff) are reflected in the original graph
   displayed in c1 (the two drawn graphs are not independent). */
}
