NAME

       rivet-chopbins - Strip specified bins from data sets.

SYNOPSIS

       rivet-chopbins -b <HISTO/PATH:min:max> [ -b ... ] <AIDAFILE> [...]

DESCRIPTION

       Strip  specified  bins  from  data  sets.  Histograms not specified will be passed through
       without any chopping. Bins to be kept can be specified on command line `-b' options.

       To chop bins from different observables can be achieved by using the `-b' option  multiple
       times.

OPTIONS

       -h, --help
              show this help message and exit

       -b BINS, --bins=BINS
              Specify   a   histogram  and  bin  range  that  is  to  be  kept.   The  format  is
              `AIDAPATH:start:stop'.

       -O OBSFILE, --obsfile=OBSFILE
              Specify a file with bin-definitions to chop

       -o OUTDIR, --out=OUTDIR
              output directory (default: .)

       -i, --in-place
              Overwrite input file rather than making inputchop.aida

Example:

              rivet-chopbins -b /ALEPH_1996_S3486095/d03-x01-y01:0.095:0.27 out.aida

       This will give you the all bins of the ALEPH 1-T distribution that are  between  the  bins
       that contain the x-values 0.095 and 0.27.
