Hi, I have an ntuple "x1:x2:x3:x4:x5:...:xn" and a list of cuts I wish to perform. I do not know in advance what n is but it is always larger than some minimum. If I create a very long string with all the cuts it does not work. Is there a quick and easy way to do something like TNtuple *nt; TNtuple *ntcut1; TNtuple *ntcut2; ... Open the file with nt .... ntcut1=nt->Clone("ntcut1","x1>5"); ntcut2=ntcut1->Clone("ntcut2","x2<3"); or nt->Draw(">>ntcut1","x1>5"); ntcut1->Draw(">>ntcut2","x2<3"); Or best yet ntcut1=nt->PerformCut("x1>5"); ntcut2=ntcut1->PerformCut("x1>5"); What I wish to avoid is having to code what is in the ntuple nt, create ntcut1 based on knowledge of nt. I am aware that I could SetAddress, GetEvent, decide, ntcut1->fill, etc. Of course, I need to form ntcut1-> to be fillable, create a structure to hold the proper x1:xn etc. I would prefer above methods. |---------------------------------|------------------------------------| | Campus Address | Office Location | | 115 S, 1400 E, Room 201 | 262 INSCC | | Salt Lake City, UT 84112-0830 | Just North of Park Building | |---------------------------------|------------------------------------| | www.physics.utah.edu/~reil | Office (801) 581-4306 | | reil@physics.utah.edu | Home (801) 969-6399 | | kevin@reil.net | Fax (801) 581-6256 (via Frank) | |----------------------------------------------------------------------| | And my father dwelt in a tent. | |----------------------------------------------------------------------|
