Goal: Prepare an SLHA-like easy to read and write accord for describing the flow of an LHC analysis.

First proposal made for a generic structure. CM and MA authors will try to implement a single lepton stop search.

Proposal by Daniel Schmeier & Jamie Tattersall

# These are the input objects for the analysis code.
# Syntax: 
#      name    type (see below)
# A well formulated comment behind each object should unambiguously state what this object is
# such that a _human_ knows what this object corresponds in his/her code

#           - 'v' for LorentzVectors,        
#           - 'b' for booleans
#           - 'c' for characters/strings
#           - any of the objects defined in the 'object' block
#           - l<type> to denote a list of objects of common type <type>.
#        - People will comment with a link to a resource where the exact definition
#          of that function can be found, in text definiton and a working example in a programming language of choice
#        - 2 functions can have the same name if they have different input types

# The Preselection block only trims existing objects or define new objects by applying functions on existing ones.
# Syntax:   new_object function parameter1   parameter2  ...
# Rules:
#     - each function must be defined in the function block
#     - parameters must match the parameter type definition in the function block  
#     - parameters must be numbers, strings, objects that have been defined in previous lines or in the 'object' block
#     - Every TLorentzVector function  "Double_t Fun() const" can be accessed by v.fun (eg. v.m, v.pt, v.px, v.costheta
#        
#     - With vectors one can do
#        vectors.n   returns size
#        vectors.3   returns the third(!) object in the list
#        vectors.8   returns a zero object if vectors contains less than 8 entries
#     - Cut-Logic should make sure that the last rule does not produce rubbish (see mT example) 
#     - objects and functions can have the same name as the syntax does clearly distinguish between the two
