Inputs

Operation

Use this menu to select the arithmetic operation with which the introduced values should be processed. The following modes are available:

  • Average: Here all values will be added and the result will be divided by the number of values. For example, with the values 1, 5, 10 and 20, the result would be 9 (36/4).
  • Sum: The result in this mode corresponds to the addition of all values.
  • Range: Here the delta value between the smallest and the largest value introduced will be output. For example, if the values 1, 5, 10, and 20 are passed to the Node, the result will be 19, since this corresponds to the result of 20-1.
  • Median: In this mode, all input values will firs be t sorted in ascending order starting from the smallest value. In a second calculation step, the pair of numbers in the middle of this ordered list will then be evaluated and the median between these values will be output as the result. In the example with the input values 1, 5, 10 and 20, this would be the values 5 and 10. The median between these values is 7.5 and will be output as the Result.
  • Min./Max: In these modes, the smallest or largest value will be output as the Result.

Stream Mode

If this option is disabled, you will get individual inputs for all the values you want to process. The number of inputs for the values can be defined individually using the Add Input and Delete Input buttons.

If the Stream mode option is is selected, you only have one input for the values, with which you have to pass all values to be processed to the Node. This is the right mode, for example, if you want to use the Node inside a loop or feed it with the values of a read array.

Data Type

Here you can select the data type that matches the input values. You can select from various vector, integer and floating point types.

Input

In this group you will find the applied individual inputs if the Stream mode option is disabled. The number of inputs can be adjusted individually using the buttons for Add Input and Delete Input.

Data Stream

This input will appear when the Stream mode option is enabled and can be used to introduce values taken from an array, for example.

Outer Scope

This signal is helpful when linking different Nodes that should be hierarchically or temporally dependent on each other. This input is only available if the Stream mode is enabled.

...}

This input can be used to include the Node in the context of a loop. This input is only available if the Stream mode is enabled.
