Here we explain how to display data from the Durham HepData database.
- The best approach is to download "jhepwork" Jython script from the Durham HepData database and run it in the jHepWork editor or as a batch script. This is the best supported approach which also allows to deal with statistical and systematical errors separately since data are imported to the P1D object. You can further modify P1D graphical attributes or replace HPlot canvas with other canvaces (like HPlotJa). You can also combine statistical and systematical errors using the methods of the P1D class.
- You can also read the AIDA data format. The Durham HepData combines statistical and systematical errors for the AIDA files (as well as for PyROOT). You should copy an AIDA file from HepData to your computer and open it using either the FreeHEP libraries and jHepWork AidaFile class designed for scripting. For the later approach, you can use the example shown here.
