​
Math Negate Float

The Math Negate Float node performs a simple negation operation on a floating-point number. It takes a single float input and outputs the negated value.

​
Inputs

  1. a (float, default: 0): The input floating-point number to be negated.

​
Outputs

  1. result (float): The negated value of the input.

​
Configuration

This node has no additional configuration options.

​
Usage

To use the Math Negate Float node:
  1. Add the Math Negate Float node to your spell.
  2. Connect a node that outputs a floating-point number to the a input of the Math Negate Float node.
  3. The negated value will be available at the result output.

​
Example

Here’s a simple example spell that demonstrates the usage of the Math Negate Float node: 
{
  "nodes": [
    {
      "type": "input/float",
      "id": "1",
      "configuration": {
        "value": 42.5
      },
      "outputs": {
        "output": "2.a"
      }
    },
    {
      "type": "math/negate/float",
      "id": "2",
      "inputs": {
        "a": "1.output"
      },
      "outputs": {
        "result": "3.input"
      }
    },
    {
      "type": "output/float",
      "id": "3",
      "inputs": {
        "input": "2.result"
      }
    }
  ]
}
In this example:
  1. The input/float node (ID: 1) provides a floating-point value of 42.5.
  2. The math/negate/float node (ID: 2) takes the value from node 1 and negates it.
  3. The output/float node (ID: 3) receives the negated value from node 2 and outputs it.
The final output of this spell will be -42.5.

Best Practices

  • Ensure that the input to the Math Negate Float node is a valid floating-point number. Connecting nodes with incompatible types may lead to errors.

​
Common Issues

  • No known common issues for this node. It performs a straightforward negation operation on floating-point numbers.
The Math Negate Float node is a simple utility node for negating floating-point values. It can be useful in various mathematical and data processing spells where negation is required.
