Step
Menu Path : Operator > Math > Arithmetic > Step
The Step Operator compares an input value to a threshold and returns whether the input is above or below the threshold:
- If X is greater than the threshold, the result is 1.
- If X is less than or equal to the threshold, the result is 0.
For example, for a threshold of 0.5, an input of (0.3, 0.5, 1) outputs (0, 0, 1).
The Step Operator accepts input values of various types. For the list of types this Operator can use, see Available Types. This Operator always returns a value in the same type as its input.
Operator properties
| Input | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Value | Configurable | The value this Operator evaluates. |
| Threshold | Configurable | An input of either float type or the same type as X. |
| Output | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Out | Dependent | The value of the input subtracted from one. The Type changes to match the type of Value. |
