Description:

ROOT is a powerful data analysis tool within the particle physics community,
and the primary lens through which we see our data. The framework includes
quite a bit of graphical capabilities, but producing high-quality graphics
output was not the first priority in designing its capabilities
or its interface.

It becomes useful, then, to consider using an outside library
focused on graphics for producing final plots. The pyROOT
interface to ROOT makes it easy to have ROOT objects interact with
other python modules. The goal of rootplot is to enable easy
plotting of ROOT histograms using the full-featured and mature
matplotlib library.
