/**
A histogram for aggregation of data along multiple dimensions.
 
Every call to \ref Fill(const A &... args) "Fill" increments the bin content and is reflected in global statistics:
\code
ROOT::Experimental::RHist<int> hist(10, {5, 15});
hist.Fill(8.5);
// hist.GetBinContent(ROOT::Experimental::RBinIndex(3)) will return 1
\endcode
 
The class is templated on the bin content type. For counting, as in the example above, it may be an integral type such
as `int` or `long`. Narrower types such as `unsigned char` or `short` are supported, but may overflow due to their
limited range and must be used with care. For weighted filling, the bin content type must not be an integral type, but
a floating-point type such as `float` or `double`, or the special type RBinWithError. Note that `float` has a limited
significand precision of 24 bits.
 
An object can have arbitrary dimensionality determined at run-time. The axis configuration is passed as a vector of
RAxisVariant:
\code
std::vector<ROOT::Experimental::RAxisVariant> axes;
axes.push_back(ROOT::Experimental::RRegularAxis(10, {5, 15}));
axes.push_back(ROOT::Experimental::RVariableBinAxis({1, 10, 100, 1000}));
ROOT::Experimental::RHist<int> hist(axes);
// hist.GetNDimensions() will return 2
\endcode
