<=~

Is less than or equal to, comparison of two signals

Description

<=~ outputs a 1 signal when the left input is less-than or equal-to the right input and a 0 when it is less-than the right input. The right input can be a signal or a float.

Arguments

Name Type Opt Description
initial-comparison-value float or int opt Sets an initial comparison value for the signal coming into the left inlet. 1 is sent out if the signal is less than or equal to the argument; otherwise, 0 is sent out. If a signal is connected to the right inlet, the argument is ignored. If no argument is present, and no signal is connected to the right inlet, the initial value is 0 by default.

Messages

int comparison-value [int]
 In right inlet: A number to be used for comparison with the signal coming into the left inlet. If a signal is also connected to the right inlet, a float or int is ignored.
float comparison-value [float]
 In right inlet: A number to be used for comparison with the signal coming into the left inlet. If a signal is also connected to the right inlet, a float or int is ignored.
signal In left inlet: The signal is compared to a signal coming into the right inlet, or a constant value received in the right inlet. If it is less-than or equal-to the value in the right inlet, 1 is sent out; otherwise, 0 is sent out.
