Hist Quick Demo

Hist Quick Demo#

My favorite demo notebook config setting:

[1]:
%config InteractiveShell.ast_node_interactivity="last_expr_or_assign"

Let’s import Hist:

[2]:
import numpy as np

from hist import Hist

We can use the classic constructors from boost-histogram, but let’s use the new QuickConstruct system instead:

[3]:
h = Hist.new.Reg(100, -10, 10, name="x").Double()
[3]:
-10 10 x
Regular(100, -10, 10, name='x')

Double() Σ=0.0

Let’s fill it with some data:

[4]:
h.fill(np.random.normal(1, 3, 1_000_000))
[4]:
-10 10 x
Regular(100, -10, 10, name='x')

Double() Σ=998569.0 (1000000.0 with flow)

And you can keep filling:

[5]:
h.fill(np.random.normal(-3, 1, 100_000))
[5]:
-10 10 x
Regular(100, -10, 10, name='x')

Double() Σ=1098569.0 (1100000.0 with flow)

You can plot (uses mplhep in the backend):

[6]:
h.plot();
../_images/examples_HistDemo_12_0.png

We also have direct access to histoprint:

[7]:
h.show(columns=50)

Let’s try 2D:

[8]:
h2 = Hist.new.Reg(100, -10, 10, name="x").Reg(100, -10, 10, name="y").Double()
[8]:
-10 10 -10 10 x y
