block

ports

to(other)

Transfer the data between two PortReference instances, in this direction self -> other. From outputs to inputs.

Parameters:

other (PortReference) – the PortReference instance to transfer data to from self

get_inputs()

Return the input values of the block at specified ports

Returns:

out – input values of block

Return type:

list[float, obj]

set_inputs(vals)

Set the block inputs with values at specified ports

Parameters:

vals (list[float, obj]) – values to set at block input ports

get_outputs()

Return the output values of the block at specified ports

Returns:

out – output values of block

Return type:

list[float, obj]

set_outputs(vals)

Set the block outputs with values at specified ports

Parameters:

vals (list[float, obj]) – values to set at block output ports

to_dict()
