26/** \class THnChain
27A class to chain together multiple histograms.
28
29This class allows to chain together any `THnBase`-derived (`THn` or `THnSparse`)
30histograms from multiple files. Operations on the axes and projections are
31supported. The intent is to allow convenient merging merging of projections
32of high-dimensional histograms.
33
34\code{.cpp}
35// `file1.root` and `file2.root` contain a `THnSparse` named `hsparse`.
36THnChain hs("hsparse");
37hs.AddFile("file1.root");
38hs.AddFile("file2.root");
39
40// Project out axis 0, integrate over other axes.
41TH1* h0 = hs.Projection(0);
42
43// Project out axis 0, integrate over other axes in their active ranges.
44hs.GetAxis(1)->SetRangeUser(0, 0.1); // select a subrange
45TH1* h0 = hs.Projection(0);
