This tutorial illustrates the basic features of RooFit.

import ROOT
# Set up model
# ---------------------
# Declare variables x,mean,sigma with associated name, title, initial
# value and allowed range
x = ROOT.RooRealVar("x", "x", -10, 10)
mean = ROOT.RooRealVar("mean", "mean of gaussian", 1, -10, 10)
sigma = ROOT.RooRealVar("sigma", "width of gaussian", 1, 0.1, 10)
# Build gaussian pdf in terms of x,mean and sigma
gauss = ROOT.RooGaussian("gauss", "gaussian PDF", x, mean, sigma)
# Construct plot frame in 'x'
xframe = x.frame(Title="Gaussian pdf") # RooPlot
# Plot model and change parameter values
# ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Plot gauss in frame (i.e. in x)
gauss.plotOn(xframe)
# Change the value of sigma to 3
sigma.setVal(3)
# Plot gauss in frame (i.e. in x) and draw frame on canvas
gauss.plotOn(xframe, LineColor="r")
# Generate events
# -----------------------------
# Generate a dataset of 1000 events in x from gauss
data = gauss.generate({x}, 10000) # ROOT.RooDataSet
# Make a second plot frame in x and draw both the
# data and the pdf in the frame
xframe2 = x.frame(Title="Gaussian pdf with data") # RooPlot
data.plotOn(xframe2)
gauss.plotOn(xframe2)
# Fit model to data
# -----------------------------
# Fit pdf to data
gauss.fitTo(data, PrintLevel=-1)
# Print values of mean and sigma (that now reflect fitted values and
# errors)
mean.Print()
sigma.Print()
# Draw all frames on a canvas
