The following macro illustrates how to loop on a list
of histograms (h50418 --> h50426)
{
gROOT->Reset();
TFile f("~/root/histos/test.root");
TCanvas *page = new TCanvas("page");
page->Divide(2,4);
TH1F *h;
char padname[20];
char hname[20];
for(Int_t i=0;i<8;i++){
sprintf(padname,"page_%d",i+1);
TPad *pad = (TPad*) page->GetPrimitive(padname);
pad->cd();
sprintf(hname,"h%d",i+50418);
h = (TH1F*)f.Get(hname);
h->Draw();
}
}
The following macro illustrates how to loop on the list
of keys in the current file using an iterator.
key name is the histogram name.
{
gROOT->Reset();
TFile f("~/root/histos/test.root");
TCanvas *page = new TCanvas("page");
page->Divide(2,4);
TH1F *h;
char padname[20];
TIter next(f.GetListOfKeys());
TKey *key;
i = 0;
while (key=(TKey*)next()) {
sprintf(padname,"page_%d",++i);
TPad *pad = (TPad*) page->GetPrimitive(padname);
pad->cd();
h = (TH1F*)f.Get(key->GetName());
h->Draw();
}
}
