Command: topology::CreateParameter

Name:
topology::CreateParameter - create a spatial function

Synopsis:
<< /type dict >> CreateParameter -> parameter

Parameters:
/type - parameter type dict - dictionary with parameter specifications

Description:
Parameters are spatial functions which are used when creating connections in the Topology module. A parameter may be used as a probability kernel when creating connections or as synaptic parameters (such as weight and delay). This command creates a parameter object which may be combined with other parameter objects using arithmetic operators. The parameter is specified in a dictionary.
