Data types in LOGIKEDITOR

Within the logic groups, four file types are differentiated.

Data type	Value range	Comment
Boolean	true / false	Boolean is a logic value that may only be logic true and logic false.
Integer	64 bit integer	Signed integer. 64 bits result in a possible numerical range of -9223372036854775808 to 9223372036854775807
Float	64 bit float	Float meets the IEEE-754 standard. The value range is from about 5x10⁻³²⁴ to 1,798x10^308.Value range: -1.797693134862315708145274237317043567981e+308 - 1.797693134862315708145274237317043567981e+308
String	Text	Text in UTF-8 format. There is no limitation regarding length. Please note that very long texts may cause delays for some operations in logic groups.
Colour	RGBW (32 bit)	A special type for transporting colour settings. The light scene is the application example. In other logic elements, the colour value is interpreted as integer.

The logic elements try to convert the data types of the incoming data for their own use case, if possible. If this is not possible, the logic element will normally not execute any action.

Examples for converting between the data types:

Start data type	Value	Target data type	Value
Boolean	true	Integer	1
Boolean	false	Integer	0
Float	33.5	Integer	33
String	"55"	Integer	55
String	"BAB"	Integer	-
Integer	10	Boolean	true
Integer	0	Boolean	false

If possible, data types are converted as necessary.
