    The Formula class
 
    This is a new version of the TFormula class based on Cling.
    This class is not 100% backward compatible with the old TFormula class, which is still available in ROOT as
    `ROOT::v5::TFormula`. Some of the TFormula member functions available in version 5, such as
    `Analyze` and `AnalyzeFunction` are not available in the new TFormula.
    On the other hand formula expressions which were valid in version 5 are still valid in TFormula version 6
 
    This class has been implemented during Google Summer of Code 2013 by Maciej Zimnoch.
 
    ### Example of valid expressions:
 
    - `sin(x)/x`
    - `[0]*sin(x) + [1]*exp(-[2]*x)`
    - `x + y**2`
    - `x^2 + y^2`
    - `[0]*pow([1],4)`
    - `2*pi*sqrt(x/y)`
    - `gaus(0)*expo(3)  + ypol3(5)*x`
    - `gausn(0)*expo(3) + ypol3(5)*x`
    - `gaus(x, [0..2]) + expo(y, [3..4])`
 
    In the last examples above:
 
    - `gaus(0)` is a substitute for `[0]*exp(-0.5*((x-[1])/[2])**2)`
    and (0) means start numbering parameters at 0
    - `gausn(0)` is a substitute for `[0]*exp(-0.5*((x-[1])/[2])**2)/(sqrt(2*pi)*[2]))`
    and (0) means start numbering parameters at 0
    - `expo(3)` is a substitute for `exp([3]+[4]*x)`
    - `pol3(5)` is a substitute for `par[5]+par[6]*x+par[7]*x**2+par[8]*x**3`
    (`PolN` stands for Polynomial of degree N)
    - `gaus(x, [0..2])` is a more explicit way of writing `gaus(0)`
    - `expo(y, [3..4])` is a substitute for `exp([3]+[4]*y)`
 
    See below the [full list of predefined functions](\ref FormulaFuncs) which can be used as shortcuts in
    TFormula.
 
    `TMath` functions can be part of the expression, eg:
 
    - `TMath::Landau(x)*sin(x)`
    - `TMath::Erf(x)`
 
    Formula may contain constants, eg:
 
    - `sqrt2`
    - `e`
    - `pi`
    - `ln10`
    - `infinity`
 
    and more.
 
    Formulas may also contain other user-defined ROOT functions defined with a
    TFormula, eg, where `f1` is defined on one x-dimension and 2 parameters:
 
    - `f1(x, [omega], [phi])`
    - `f1([0..1])`
    - `f1([1], [0])`
    - `f1(y)`
 
    To replace only parameter names, the dimension variable can be dropped.
    Alternatively, to change only the dimension variable, the parameters can be
    dropped. Note that if a parameter is dropped or keeps its old name, its old
    value will be copied to the new function. The syntax used in the examples
    above also applies to the predefined parametrized functions like `gaus` and
    `expo`.
 
    Comparisons operators are also supported `(&amp;&amp;, ||, ==, &lt;=, &gt;=, !)`
 
    Examples:
 
    `sin(x*(x&lt;0.5 || x&gt;1))`
 
    If the result of a comparison is TRUE, the result is 1, otherwise 0.
 
    Already predefined names can be given. For example, if the formula
 
    `TFormula old("old",sin(x*(x&lt;0.5 || x&gt;1)))`
 
    one can assign a name to the formula. By default the name of the object = title = formula itself.
 
    `TFormula new("new","x*old")`
 
    is equivalent to:
 
    `TFormula new("new","x*sin(x*(x&lt;0.5 || x&gt;1))")`
 
    The class supports unlimited number of variables and parameters.
    By default the names which can be used for the variables are `x,y,z,t` or
    `x[0],x[1],x[2],x[3],....x[N]` for N-dimensional formulas.
 
    This class is not anymore the base class for the function classes `TF1`, but it has now
    a data member of TF1 which can be accessed via `TF1::GetFormula`.
 
    TFormula supports gradient and hessian calculations through clad.
    To calculate the gradient one needs to first declare a `CladStorage` of the
    same size as the number of parameters and then pass the variables and the
    created `CladStorage`:
 
    ```
    TFormula f("f", "x*[0] - y*[1]");
    Double_t p[] = {40, 30};
    Double_t x[] = {1, 2};
    f.SetParameters(p);
    TFormula::CladStorage grad(2);
    f.GradientPar(x, grad);
    ```
 
    The process is similar for hessians, except that the size of the created
    CladStorage should be the square of the number of parameters because
    `HessianPar` returns a flattened matrix:
 
    ```
    TFormula::CladStorage hess(4);
    f.HessianPar(x, hess);
    ```
 
    \anchor FormulaFuncs
    ### List of predefined functions
 
    The list of available predefined functions which can be used as shortcuts is the following:
    1. One Dimensional functions:
      - `gaus`  is a substitute for `[Constant]*exp(-0.5*((x-[Mean])/[Sigma])*((x-[Mean])/[Sigma]))`
      - `landau` is a substitute for `[Constant]*TMath::Landau (x,[MPV],[Sigma],false)`
      - `expo`  is a substitute for `exp([Constant]+[Slope]*x)`
      - `crystalball` is substitute for `[Constant]*ROOT::Math::crystalball_function (x,[Alpha],[N],[Sigma],[Mean])`
      - `breitwigner` is a substitute for `[p0]*ROOT::Math::breitwigner_pdf (x,[p2],[p1])`
      - `pol0,1,2,...N` is a substitute for a polynomial of degree `N` :
         `([p0]+[p1]*x+[p2]*pow(x,2)+....[pN]*pow(x,N)`
      - `cheb0,1,2,...N` is a substitute for a Chebyshev polynomial of degree `N`:
         `ROOT::Math::Chebyshev10(x,[p0],[p1],[p2],...[pN])`. Note the maximum N allowed here is 10.
    2. Two Dimensional functions:
      - `xygaus` is a substitute for `[Constant]*exp(-0.5*pow(((x-[MeanX])/[SigmaX]),2 )- 0.5*pow(((y-[MeanY])/[SigmaY]),2))`, a 2d Gaussian without correlation.
      - `bigaus` is a substitute for `[Constant]*ROOT::Math::bigaussian_pdf (x,y,[SigmaX],[SigmaY],[Rho],[MeanX],[MeanY])`, a 2d gaussian including a correlation parameter.
    3. Three Dimensional functions:
      - `xyzgaus` is for a 3d Gaussians without correlations:
      `[Constant]*exp(-0.5*pow(((x-[MeanX])/[SigmaX]),2 )- 0.5*pow(((y-[MeanY])/[SigmaY]),2 )- 0.5*pow(((z-[MeanZ])/[SigmaZ]),2))`
 
 
    ### An expanded note on variables and parameters
 
    In a TFormula, a variable is a defined by a name `x`, `y`, `z` or `t` or an
    index like `x[0]`, `x[1]`, `x[2]`; that is `x[N]` where N is an integer.
 
    ```
    TFormula("", "x[0] * x[1] + 10")
    ```
 
    Parameters are similar and can take any name. It is specified using brackets
    e.g. `[expected_mass]` or `[0]`.
 
    ```
    TFormula("", "exp([expected_mass])-1")
    ```
 
    Variables and parameters can be combined in the same TFormula. Here we consider
    a very simple case where we have an exponential decay after some time t and a
    number of events with timestamps for which we want to evaluate this function.
 
    ```
    TFormula tf ("", "[0]*exp(-[1]*t)");
    tf.SetParameter(0, 1);
    tf.SetParameter(1, 0.5);
 
    for (auto & event : events) {
       tf.Eval(event.t);
    }
    ```
 
    The distinction between variables and parameters arose from the TFormula's
    application in fitting. There parameters are fitted to the data provided
    through variables. In other applications this distinction can go away.
 
    Parameter values can be provided dynamically using `TFormula::EvalPar`
    instead of `TFormula::Eval`. In this way parameters can be used identically
    to variables. See below for an example that uses only parameters to model a
    function.
 
    ```
    Int_t params[2] = {1, 2}; // {vel_x, vel_y}
    TFormula tf ("", "[vel_x]/sqrt(([vel_x + vel_y])**2)");
 
    tf.EvalPar(nullptr, params);
    ```
 
    ### A note on operators
 
    All operators of C/C++ are allowed in a TFormula with a few caveats.
 
    The operators `|`, `&`, `%` can be used but will raise an error if used in
    conjunction with a variable or a parameter. Variables and parameters are treated
    as doubles internally for which these operators are not defined.
    This means the following command will run successfully
       ```root -l -q -e TFormula("", "x+(10%3)").Eval(0)```
    but not
       ```root -l -q -e TFormula("", "x%10").Eval(0)```.
 
    The operator `^` is defined to mean exponentiation instead of the C/C++
    interpretation xor. `**` is added, also meaning exponentiation.
 
    The operators `++` and `@` are added, and are shorthand for the a linear
    function. That means the expression `x@2` will be expanded to
    ```[n]*x + [n+1]*2``` where n is the first previously unused parameter number.
