rect
Computes a unit-width rectangular pulse centered at zero.
rect(x) is 1 when |x|<1/2, 1/2 when |x|=1/2, and 0 when |x|>1/2. Unresolved symbolic inputs remain as rect(x).
Examples
These examples use Nerdamer Notation.
Evaluate at the center of the pulse.
rect(0)
// → 1Use the half-height value at the boundary.
rect(1/2)
// → 1/2Return zero outside the pulse.
rect(3/4)
// → 0Keep an unresolved symbolic input unevaluated.
rect(x)
// → rect(x)Interfaces
