Run the Root:

root -l

histogram with cut criteria:

< name of the tree in the file >.Draw("< name of a Branch1 >.< name of a leaf1 >,< name of a Branch2 >.< name of a leaf2 >< cut criteria>")

draw two histogram in one canvas:

< name of the tree in the file >.Draw("< name of a Branch1 >.< name of a leaf1 >")

Run it:

root -l

Open a file:

TFile *_file0 = TFile::Open("..... .root")

File browser:

List the directories:

.ls
< directory name >.cd()

Print the tree:

< ntuplename >.Print()

Scan the tree:

< ntuplename >.Scan("< name of a Branch >.< name of a leaf >")

Make a new histogram:

TH1F * = new TH1F ("name","",#ofXaxis,#ofYaxis,#ofBins);

Make a new canvas:

TCanvas *c1=new TCanvas ("name","",1);

Draw a histogram:

name of the tree in the file.Draw("name of a Branch.name of a leaf")

2D histogram:
name of the tree in the file.Draw("name of a Branch1.name of a leaf1:name of a Branch2.name of a leaf2")

histogram with cut criteria:
_name of the tree in the file.Draw("name of a Branch1.name of a leaf1,name of a Branch2.name of a leaf2 cut criteria")_

draw two histogram in one canvas:
< name of the tree in the file>.Draw(".")

.Draw(". ","","SAME")
e.g.:
tree.Draw("pelectron_1.tight: pelectron_1.loose ","pelectron_1.tight>-1")

Open an AOD file in root:

gSystem->Load("libFWCoreFWLite");
AutoLibraryLoader::enable();
TFile *_file0 = TFile::Open("rfio:/castor/cern.ch/user/........ .root")
TBrowser b

TChain:

Chain.C:
#include

void Chain(){
TChain tree("stopAnaMod/tree");
tree.AddFile("stopAnaNtuple_noselection_Chowder_00.root");
tree.Draw("event");
}

Save a histogram to .eps:

TCanvas *=new TCanvas ("","",1);

.Draw(".")

c1->SaveAs(".eps");

Usage of MakeClass :

Run it:
root -l

Open a file:
TFile *_file0 = TFile::Open("..... .root")

File browser:
TBrowser <name>

List the directories:

.ls
<directory name>.cd()

Print the tree:
ntuple.Print()

Scan the tree:
ntuple.Scan("name of a Branch.name of a leaf")

Make a new histogram:
TH1F *name_of_the_histogram = new TH1F ("name","title",<#ofXaxis>,<#ofYaxis>,<#ofBins>);
 
Make a new canvas:
TCanvas *c1=new TCanvas ("name","title",1);

Draw a histogram:
name of the tree in the file.Draw("name of a Branch.name of a leaf")
2D histogram:
name of the tree in the file.Draw("name of a Branch1.name of a leaf1:name of a Branch2.name of a leaf2")

histogram with cut criteria:
<name of the tree in the file>.Draw("<name of a Branch1>.<name of a leaf1,name of a Branch2>.<name of a leaf2><cut criteria>")
draw two histogram in one canvas:
<name of the tree in the file>.Draw("<name of a Branch1>.<name of a leaf1>")

<name of the tree in the file>.Draw("<name of a Branch2>.<name of a leaf2>","","SAME")
e.g.:
tree.Draw("pelectron_1.tight:pelectron_1.loose","pelectron_1.tight>-1")
