Use the lazy RDataFrame data source to concatenate computation graphs.
This tutorial illustrates how to take advantage of a lazy data source creating a data frame from columns of one or multiple parent dataframe(s), delaying the creation of the columns to the actual usage of the daughter data frame.

Let's first create a RDF that will read from the CSV file. See the tutorial (https://root.cern.ch/doc/master/df014__CSVDataSource_8C.html) on CSV data sources for more details!
auto fileNameUrl = "http://root.cern.ch/files/tutorials/df014_CsvDataSource_MuRun2010B.csv";
auto fileName = "df015_CsvDataSource_MuRun2010B.csv";
if(gSystem->AccessPathName(fileName))
TFile::Cp(fileNameUrl, fileName);
auto csv_rdf = FromCSV(fileName);
[TFile::Cp] Total 14.46 MB |====================| 100.00 % [198.1 MB/s]
Now we take out two columns: px and py of the first muon in the muon pair
std::string px1Name = "px1";
auto px1 = csv_rdf.Take<double>(px1Name);
std::string py1Name = "py1";
auto py1 = csv_rdf.Take<double>(py1Name);
Now we create a new dataframe built on top of the columns above. Note that up to now, no event loop has been carried out!
auto df = MakeLazyDataFrame(std::make_pair(px1Name, px1), std::make_pair(py1Name, py1));
We build a histogram of the transverse momentum of the muons.
auto ptFormula = [](double px, double py) { return sqrt(px * px + py * py); };
auto pt_h = df.Define("pt", ptFormula, {"px1", "py1"})
.Histo1D<double>({"pt", "Muon p_{T};p_{T} [GeV/c];", 128, 0, 128}, "pt");
auto can = new TCanvas();
can->SetLogy();
pt_h->DrawCopy();
return 0;
