bpf

bpf — Break point function with linear interpolation

Description

Plugin opcode in emugens.

Break-point function with linear interpolation.

Syntax

ky bpf kx, kx1, ky1, kx2, ..., kxn, kyn
iy bpf ix, ix1, iy1, ix2, ..., ixn, iyn
kys[] bpf kxs[], kx1, ky1, kx2, ..., kxn, kyn
iys[] bpf ixs[], ix1, iy1, ix2, ..., ixn, iyn
ky bpf kx, kxs[], kys[]
iy bpf ix, ixs[], iys[]
ay bpf ax, kx1, ky1, kx2, ..., kxn, kyn
ay bpf ax, kxs[], kys[]
ky, kw bpf kx, kxs[], kys[], kws[]

Performance

kx -- Input value

kxn, kyn -- Defines a breakpoint. Can be changed at krate, but all kxs must be sorted

The points (kx1, ky1), (kx2, ky2), etc, define a linearly interpolated function. This function is evaluated at point kx. This function extends to both -inf and +inf, so if kx < kx1 then ky = ky1 and the same holds true the other end.

These are equivalent:

      ky bpf kx, 0, 0,  0.5, 10,  1.02, 200

      itab ftgenonce 0, 0, -27, 0, 0, 50, 10, 102, 200
      ky = tablei(limit(kx, 0, 1.02)*100, itab)
    
[Note] Note

x values need to be sorted. Both x and y values can change but x values must stay sorted.

/*

  bpf stands for Break Point Function

  Given an x value and a series of pairs (x, y), it returns
  the corresponding y value in the linear curve defined by the
  pairs

  It works both at i- and k- time

  ky    bpf kx,    kx0, ky0, kx1, ky1, kx2, ky2, ...
  kys[] bpf kxs[], kx0, ky0, kx1, ky1, kx2, ky2, ...

  NB: x values must be ordered (kx0 < kx1 < kx2 etc)
