# Represents bounds and a step value for a floating point typed parameter. # Start value for valid values, inclusive. float64 from_value # End value for valid values, inclusive. float64 to_value # Size of valid steps between the from and to bound. # # Step is considered to be a magnitude, therefore negative values are treated # the same as positive values, and a step value of zero implies a continuous # range of values. # # Ideally, the step would be less than or equal to the distance between the # bounds, as well as an even multiple of the distance between the bounds, but # neither are required. # # If the absolute value of the step is larger than or equal to the distance # between the two bounds, then the bounds will be the only valid values. e.g. if # the range is defined as {from_value: 1.0, to_value: 2.0, step: 5.0} then the # valid values will be 1.0 and 2.0. # # If the step is less than the distance between the bounds, but the distance is # not a multiple of the step, then the "to" bound will always be a valid value, # e.g. if the range is defined as {from_value: 2.0, to_value: 5.0, step: 2.0} # then the valid values will be 2.0, 4.0, and 5.0. float64 step
