[docs]class Piecewise(Process): """A piecewise function with different options for interpolation. Given an input dictionary of ``{0: 0, 0.5: -1, 0.75: 0.5, 1: 0}``, this process will emit the numerical values (0, -1, 0.5, 0) starting at the corresponding time points (0, 0.5, 0.75, 1). The keys in the input dictionary must be times (float or int). The values in the dictionary can be floats, lists of floats, or numpy arrays. All lists or numpy arrays must be of the same length, as the output shape of the process will be determined by the shape of the values. Interpolation on the data points using `scipy.interpolate` is also supported. The default interpolation is 'zero', which creates a piecewise function whose values change at the specified time points. So the above example would be shortcut for:: def function(t): if t < 0.5: return 0 elif t < 0.75 return -1 elif t < 1: return 0.5 else: return 0 For times before the first specified time, an array of zeros (of the correct length) will be emitted. This means that the above can be simplified to:: Piecewise({0.5: -1, 0.75: 0.5, 1: 0}) Parameters ---------- data : dict A dictionary mapping times to the values that should be emitted at those times. Times must be numbers (ints or floats), while values can be numbers, lists of numbers, numpy arrays of numbers, or callables that return any of those options. interpolation : str, optional (Default: 'zero') One of 'linear', 'nearest', 'slinear', 'quadratic', 'cubic', or 'zero'. Specifies how to interpolate between times with specified value. 'zero' creates a plain piecewise function whose values begin at corresponding time points, while all other options interpolate as described in `scipy.interpolate`.
