Hi Tahsina, Your definition of "total" is not correct. Instead of: total = new TF1("total","landau(0)+gaus(0)",-20,200); it should be: total = new TF1("total","gaus(0)+landau(3)",-20,200); Look again as it is defined in multifit.C Rene Brun Tahsina Ferdousi wrote: > > Hi Rooters, > > I was trying to fit a histogram with a gaussian+landau.
