Overview
The Process2D node is used to process histogram data generated by the
Collect2D
and expose it for visualisation and export.
Description
Once a
Collect2D
node has accumulated a histogram, the Process2D node can process it into something meaningful to the user, adjusting, scaling, and normalising as appropriate. It also lets axis names be assigned to the data, and converts the original histogram data into a form suitable for plotting and/or export.
Scaling, normalisation, and other operations on the data can be performed through the the node’s local branch (see below).
The Process2D node is intended to appear at the very end of a procedure, preparing the collected data for consumption.
Branching
The Process* nodes all have a branch with the “Operate” context (accessed through the hidden Normalisation keyword) which is always executed, and can be used to perform mathematical operations via a sequence of Operate* nodes.
