SEED

The four steps to analyze n-tuples using SEED:

1. Set up SEED
2. Create your seed
   The seed fills data from the n-tuple into a dataclass. The data is then stored in a new file consisting of these dataclasses. seed::TEventSample::MakeSeed can create the code for a Seed for you.
3. Run ntpl2class
   The #included seeds (which are activated in the Seed Activation File, see seed::TEventSample::Create) transform the data in the n-tuple into classes, the TEventSample stores them in a new "class" file.
4. Analyze your class file
   Write a program like analyze.cxx, again #includeing your seeds. Reading the class file back you can use the methods coming with the dataclasses to analyze your data! (e.g. seed::TJet offers interfaces to ROOT's TLorentzVector)
