Run examples

NtupleDataFormat.py provides a wrapper to the ntuple such that it can be used as if it contained classes. An example implementation can be found in NtupleExample.py (ONLY GENPARTICLES AND MUON CLASSES HAVE BEEN IMPLEMENTED FOR NOW, NEED TO INCLUDE MISSING OBJECTS). You need to provide an ntuple ROOT file to it:

python ntuple_example.py tree.root
