In range and coerce should have additional polymorphic functionality like accept tolerance

Status: New

Should be able to specify tolerance instead of just upper and lower limits. This de clutters the application block diagram when you are checking for a value within certain limits.

 

 . Upper limit becomes : x+ tolerance, Lower Limite becomes : x - tolerance when using tolerance instance of the polymorphic vi.

 

For even higher level functionality , specify units of tolerance : absolute, percent(1e-2), parts per million (1e-6), parts per billion (1e-9)
