ROOT::Fit::FitResult Class Reference

class containg the result of the fit and all the related information (fitted parameter values, error, covariance matrix and minimizer result information) Contains a pointer also to the fitted (model) function, modified with the fit parameter values.

When the fit is valid, it is constructed from a Minimizer and a model function pointer
