# Scalar Constant

> **Note:** **What is it about?**
>
> This page describes the **Scalar Constant node** of the Redshift renderer in **Cinema 4D**. It provides a single float value as a reusable source — keeping frequently shared numbers adjustable in one place.

This node enables the input of a floating point value, which can then be made available for mathematical calculations or the configuration of material properties, for example.
