/** \class RooStepFunction
    \ingroup Roofit

The  Step Function is a binned function whose parameters
are the heights of each bin.

This function may be used to describe oddly shaped distributions. A RooStepFunction
has free parameters. In particular, any statistical uncertainty
used to model this efficiency may be understood with these free parameters.

Note that in contrast to RooParametricStepFunction, a RooStepFunction is NOT a PDF,
but a not-normalized function (RooAbsReal)
