Users can extend the library with various new types whose concepts are defined here.
An Axis maps input values to indices. It holds state specific to that axis, like the number of bins and any metadata. Must be CopyConstructible, CopyAssignable, and nothrow MoveAssignable.
A
is a type meeting the
requirements of Axis
a
is a value of type
A
I
is an alias for boost::histogram::axis::index_type

Static constexpr member function which returns true, if the axis has a bin for every possible input value, and false otherwise. Faster code can be generated if all axes types in a histogram are inclusive. An axis with underflow and overflow bins is always inclusive. An axis may be inclusive even if underflow or overflow bins are missing. For example, a category axis is inclusive if it has an overflow bin or if it is growing. |

Const member function which returns a const reference to the metadata associated with the axis (usually a string). |

Likewise, but non-const member function which returns a reference to the metadata. If this member function exists, also the previous one must exist. |
