Behavior

y(t) = input history at t − fixed delay. The worked example connects this operation to signals in Lemonergy Studio.

Connected concepts

Limits and interpretation

  • Fixed strictly positive delay; immutable accepted-step linear history; source and prehistory discontinuities propagate through cascaded delays. Method-of-steps bound and finite buffer are enforced.
  • Shapes and element types are explicit. Values must be finite; automatic reshaping and unit conversion are not performed.
