ComfyUI Node: Schedule Numeric Operation

Schedule Numeric Operation:

SaltListOperation is a versatile node designed to perform numeric operations on schedule lists. This node allows you to manipulate and transform lists of numerical values through various operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and normalization. By providing a flexible and powerful way to handle numeric data, SaltListOperation can be used to fine-tune and adjust schedules for different parameters in your AI art projects. Whether you need to combine multiple lists, apply mathematical expressions, or convert the output to different types, this node offers a comprehensive solution to manage and process your numeric schedules effectively.

Schedule Numeric Operation Input Parameters:

schedule_list_a

This parameter represents the first list of numerical values that you want to operate on. It can be a single value or a list of values. If a single value is provided, it will be expanded to match the length of the second list. This flexibility allows you to perform operations on lists of different lengths by automatically adjusting the shorter list to match the longer one.

schedule_list_b

This parameter represents the second list of numerical values that you want to operate on. Similar to schedule_list_a, it can be a single value or a list of values. If a single value is provided, it will be expanded to match the length of the first list. This ensures that both lists are of equal length before performing the specified operation.

operation

This parameter specifies the type of numeric operation to be performed on the input lists. Common operations include addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and normalization. The choice of operation determines how the values in schedule_list_a and schedule_list_b will be combined or transformed.

output_type

This parameter defines the type of the output values. It can be set to "int" for integer values, "float" for floating-point values, or "boolean" for boolean values. This allows you to control the format of the resulting list, ensuring it meets the requirements of subsequent nodes or processes in your workflow.

expression

This optional parameter allows you to provide a custom mathematical expression to be applied to the input lists. By using this parameter, you can define complex operations and transformations that go beyond the basic arithmetic operations. This adds an extra layer of flexibility and customization to the node's functionality.

Schedule Numeric Operation Output Parameters:

result_list

The output of the SaltListOperation node is a list of numerical values resulting from the specified operation. The format of the values in this list is determined by the output_type parameter. This output can be used as input for other nodes or processes, enabling seamless integration and further manipulation of the data in your AI art projects.

Schedule Numeric Operation Usage Tips:

• To ensure smooth operation, always provide lists of equal length or use single values that can be expanded to match the length of the other list.
• Utilize the output_type parameter to format the result list according to the needs of subsequent nodes in your workflow.
• Experiment with the expression parameter to create custom transformations and achieve unique effects in your schedules.

Schedule Numeric Operation Common Errors and Solutions:

"Schedules min_value cannot be greater than max_value."

• Explanation: This error occurs when the minimum value specified for clamping is greater than the maximum value.
• Solution: Ensure that the min_value parameter is less than or equal to the max_value parameter when using clamping operations.

"Invalid operation specified."

• Explanation: This error occurs when an unsupported or incorrect operation is specified in the operation parameter.
• Solution: Verify that the operation parameter is set to a valid operation such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, or normalization.

"Type conversion error."

• Explanation: This error occurs when the node fails to convert the result list to the specified output_type.
• Solution: Check the values in the result list and ensure they are compatible with the desired output_type. For example, ensure that all values can be converted to integers if output_type is set to "int".
