+Please note that the '''order in which the helper functions are called is crucial to proper operation'''. E.g. `Measurement1D::SetupDefaultHist` relies on `fDataHist` having been set and a crash is likely if it is called before then.

 Current NUISANCE (v1r0) behaviour requires `fName`, `fPlotTitls`, `EnuMin`, `EnuMax` and `fScaleFactor` to be set by user in the implementation file. These are the only variables that need to be supplied by the user in the constructor, granted above helper functions are used.

 It's possible that these will be automated in the future, so please look at [https://nuisance.hepforge.org/trac/browser/src?order=date&desc=1 recently implemented samples] for up-to-date references.

+'''What to do:'''
+The data and covariance matrix are available in a ROOT file for the sample, so I used `Measurement1D::SetDataFromFile` to set up the data and `Measurement1D::SetCovarFromDataFile` to set up the covariances.
