/** \class TAxis
    \ingroup Histograms
    \brief Class to manage histogram axis
 
This class manages histogram axis. It is referenced by TH1 and TGraph.
To make a graphical representation of an histogram axis, this class
references the TGaxis class. TAxis supports axis with fixed or variable bin sizes.
Labels may be associated to individual bins.
See examples of various axis representations drawn by class TGaxis.
