// MHMatrix
//
// This is a histogram container which holds a matrix with one column per
// data variable. The data variable can be a complex rule (MDataChain).
// Each event for wich Fill is called (by MFillH) is added as a new
// row to the matrix.
//
// For example:
//   MHMatrix m;
//   m.AddColumn("MHillas.fSize");
//   m.AddColumn("MMcEvt.fImpact/100");
//   m.AddColumn("HillasSource.fDist*MGeomCam.fConvMm2Deg");
//   MFillH fillm(&m);
//   taskliost.AddToList(&fillm);
//   [...]
//   m.Print();
