How To Install root-roofit-more on CentOS 8
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install root-roofit-more on CentOS 8.
What is root-roofit-more
The RooFit packages provide a toolkit for modeling the expected distribution of events in a physics analysis. Models can be used to perform likelihood fits, produce plots, and generate “toy Monte Carlo” samples for various studies. The RooFit tools are integrated with the object-oriented and interactive ROOT graphical environment. RooFit has been developed for the BaBar collaboration, a high energy physics experiment at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, and is primarily targeted to the high-energy physicists using the ROOT analysis environment, but the general nature of the package make it suitable for adoption in different disciplines as well. This package contains RooFit classes that use the mathmore library.
