Description
Label a supplied lineage node's generation and graph depth.
Computational biology models distinguish counts, rates, reaction orders, stoichiometric signs and state constraints. A volume-scaling factor is only one component of a stochastic propensity, and a supplied flux bound is separate from a feasible network solution. Bookkeeping balances do not infer unobserved biological states or validate a model.
Label a supplied lineage node's generation and graph depth.
When to use this tool
Use Lineage Node Generation Depth Label when you already have nodeId, generation, depth and need to label a supplied lineage node's generation and graph depth.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter nodeId, generation, depth. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read label, sameIndex. Inspect sameIndex before interpreting the associated values.
Require nodeId nonempty and both indices nonnegative safe integers; label them and return exact equality as sameIndex.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| nodeId | Node Id | Required. Text; minimum UTF-16 length 1; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| generation | Generation | Required. Safe integer; minimum 0. |
| depth | Depth | Required. Safe integer; minimum 0. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| label | Label | Required. Text; maximum UTF-16 length 8192. |
| sameIndex | Same Index | Required. Boolean. |
{
"input": {
"nodeId": "N17",
"generation": 3,
"depth": 4
},
"output": {
"label": "N17; generation=3; depth=4",
"sameIndex": false
}
}Limitations and assumptions
- Generation and depth are separate supplied conventions. No graph traversal, ancestry, biological division or true lineage is established.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Check the full model definition, data provenance, reaction conventions and numerical implementation. Use complete network, stochastic or population analyses when needed; local count balances, priorities and bound checks cannot establish biological mechanisms or model adequacy.
