Built-in functions: trigger_magnitude function

trigger_magnitude function

trigger_magnitude()

Returns a value representing the magnitude of the triggering event. Can only be used in the equations of derived events, squirts and rule-based state variables. Events influencing these components are not listed as parameters so this function is used to get their values. If the trigger is a simple event, this function gives the value of that event's equation. If it is a time series, it is the current value from the series. If it is a limit event then it is 'true' if there is only one limit, and -1/1 for lower/upper limit if both are given.

Inputs: none

Result: same units and dimensions as triggering events
