Detailed Description

Defines a 1D piecewise function.

Defines a piecewise function mapping. This mapping allows the addition of control points, and allows the user to control the function between the control points. A piecewise hermite curve is used between control points, based on the sharpness and midpoint parameters. A sharpness of 0 yields a piecewise linear function and a sharpness of 1 yields a piecewise constant function. The midpoint is the normalized distance between control points at which the curve reaches the median Y value. The midpoint and sharpness values specified when adding a node are used to control the transition to the next node (the last node's values are ignored) Outside the range of nodes, the values are 0 if Clamping is off, or the nearest node point if Clamping is on. Using the legacy methods for adding points (which do not have Sharpness and Midpoint parameters) will default to Midpoint = 0.5 (halfway between the control points) and Sharpness = 0.0 (linear).
