 Also, look at concrete example of how to analyze single particles in [[:fcs:eic:intro|this section]].
+======  Reading ROOT files ======
+Jas4pp natively reads ROOT files including files created using ROOT 6 (ROOT3, 4 and 5 are also supported). For example, one can read ROOT trees/ntuples.
+One can find some examples in the directory "examples/root". Here is a Jython/Python example showing how to read a ROOT tree:
+<hidden Show example of a Python code here>
+<code python>
+from  hep.io.root.interfaces import TTree
+from  hep.io.root import RootFileReader
+reader = RootFileReader("ntuple_tree.root")
+tree = reader.get("tree");
+maxevents=tree.getEntries()
+leaves = tree.getLeaves()
+nrleaves=leaves.size()
+print "Nr of events=",maxevents
+print "Nr of leaves=",nrleaves
+print "Leaves:"
+for l in xrange( nrleaves ):
+   print "Leaf=",(leaves.get(l)).getName()
+print "Run over events"
+f0=leaves.get(0);
+f1=leaves.get(1);
+f2=leaves.get(2);
+for i in xrange(tree.getEntries()):
+      print f0.getValue(i), f1.getValue(i), f2.getValue(i)
+</code>

+The example directory also shows how to read histograms.
+Similar examples can be made using Java or Groovy scripting.
+The supported ROOT interfaces are:

+One can browser histogram (or ROOT objects) using this:
+<code python>
+import rootio
+rootio.HBrowser("histograms_root5.root") # browser and plot ROOT histograms
+rootio.Browser("histograms_root5.root")  # browser for ROOT objects
+</code>
+You will see the browsers:
+{{:hepsim:browser_histograms.png?300|Histogram browser}}
+{{:hepsim:root_browser.png?300|Object browser}}
+The script that call these browsers  can be put into Jython or Groovy files and executed as binary programs.
+Jas4pp does not support ROOT files with complex objects created using ROOT 6, i.e. TH1D, TH2D and TGraph.  Under investigation.
