== Formatting Studies ==
An Input is a constant used in the study's calculations. Studies can have one or more inputs, or none at all. Each input is assigned a name.
There are three types of inputs: Numeric, True/False, and String. Studies can be modified by changing the input Values. Most, but not all, studies use input values. Learn more about [[<span style="color: red;">'''LINK'''</span>/03_PLE/31-0105_Default_Properties.html name=""; Default_Study_Properties|Default Studies Inputs]].
One of the main advantages of using inputs is that the study's logic can be changed by simply changing the input values. Editing the study’s study's code is not required. The inputs can be modified before and after the study has been inserted.
