4## This tutorial illustrates how PyROOT supports declaring C++ callables from
5## Python callables making them, for example, usable with RDataFrame. The feature
6## uses the numba Python package for just-in-time compilation of the Python callable
7## and supports fundamental types and ROOT::RVec thereof.

17# To mark a Python callable to be used from C++, you have to use the decorator
18# provided by PyROOT passing the C++ types of the input arguments and the return
19# value.

21def pypow(x, y):
22 return x**y

24# The Python callable is now available from C++ in the Numba namespace.
25# For example, we can use it from the interpreter.
26ROOT.gInterpreter.ProcessLine('cout << "2^3 = " << Numba::pypow(2, 3) << endl;')

28# Or we can use the callable as well within a RDataFrame workflow.

35# ROOT uses the numba Python package to create C++ functions from python ones.
36# We support as input and return types of the callable fundamental types and
37# ROOT::RVec thereof. See the following callable computing the power of the
38# elements in an array.

ROOT's RDataFrame offers a high level interface for analyses of data stored in TTrees,...
