+// This code creates a 1D distribution of temperature vs runnumber/runid by averaging the temperatures of the towers in the root file made by Calotemp macro. 
+// how to run: root -l makeAvgTempVsRun.C
+// You have to edit the input file directory, file names of the input an output accordingly. This macro by default analyzes the case of inner hcal.
