ComfyUI Node: Constant Number

Constant Number:

The Constant Number node is designed to generate a fixed numerical value based on the specified type and input. This node is particularly useful when you need a consistent and unchanging number for various operations within your workflow. It supports different types of numbers, including integers, floats, and booleans, providing flexibility depending on your needs. By converting and returning the number in multiple formats, it ensures compatibility with other nodes and operations, making it a versatile tool in your AI art creation process.

Constant Number Input Parameters:

number_type

This parameter specifies the type of number you want to generate. It can be set to integer, float, or bool. The type determines how the input number is processed and returned. For example, choosing integer will ensure the number is treated as an integer, while float will treat it as a floating-point number, and bool will convert it to a boolean value based on its magnitude.

number

This is the primary numerical input for the node. Depending on the number_type selected, this value will be converted and returned in the appropriate format. For instance, if number_type is set to integer, the input will be converted to an integer. This parameter allows you to input the desired constant number directly.

number_as_text

This optional parameter allows you to input the number as a text string. If provided, the node will convert this text to the specified number_type. This can be useful if you need to input numbers dynamically or from text-based sources. If not provided, the node will use the number parameter directly.

Constant Number Output Parameters:

integer_value

This output provides the constant number as an integer. It is useful when subsequent nodes or operations require an integer input.

float_value

This output provides the constant number as a float. It ensures that the number can be used in operations that require floating-point precision.

bool_value

This output provides the constant number as a boolean. It converts the number to a boolean based on its magnitude, where values greater than 0.5 are considered True and others as False.

Constant Number Usage Tips:

• Use the number_type parameter to ensure the generated number is in the correct format for your specific needs.
• Utilize the number_as_text parameter when you need to input numbers dynamically or from text-based sources.
• Leverage the multiple output formats (integer, float, boolean) to ensure compatibility with various nodes and operations in your workflow.

Constant Number Common Errors and Solutions:

Invalid number operation selected.

• Explanation: This error occurs when an unsupported number_type is provided.
• Solution: Ensure that the number_type parameter is set to one of the supported types: integer, float, or bool.

ValueError: could not convert string to float

• Explanation: This error occurs when the number_as_text parameter contains a non-numeric string that cannot be converted to a float.
• Solution: Verify that the number_as_text parameter contains a valid numeric string.

TypeError: int() argument must be a string, a bytes-like object or a number, not 'NoneType'

• Explanation: This error occurs when the number parameter is not provided and number_as_text is also not set.
• Solution: Ensure that either the number or number_as_text parameter is provided with a valid numeric value.
