Often when using the rounding functions and other numeric functions you need to convert to a particular data representation. it would be nice if this was built in:
My experience with setting the output configuration is that outside of FXP I am not really happy. I like the explicit coercion myself, I just hate fishing through all of the types for the right one. Happily I did a quick search before posting a duplicate idea, I would prefer the conversions remain visible with this idea implemented.
This works for configuration options where the output wire clearly shows the configuration, such as the difference between Compare Aggregates and Compare Elements on the Equals node. But if the output wire leaves it ambiguous about the configuration of the node -- is that blue wire an int32 or an int8? --most users demand some indication on the node itself about the configuration. The lack of such decoration is why I don't use the output type configuration options for the nodes that support this today -- and adding that decoration would be really junky, so it's just cleaner, to me, to add the conversion bullet.
