Re: [ROOT] Reading a TF1

Hi Ray,

I will add a TF1::SetFunction in the next release.
After having read back your TGraph (or TH1) object with a fitted function,
you can call graph->GetFunction("name")->SetFunction(fcn).
As you have found out, it is not possible to save in the TGraph
object the compiled function. Instead, I save an array of points
where the function has been computed in such a way that you can at least
draw the shape of the function in a new session.
