mix - OpenGL ES 3.2 Reference Pages

## Name

mix — linearly interpolate between two values

## Declaration

`genType mix(` | genType x,
| genType y,
| genType a`)`;

`genType mix(` | genType x,
| genType y,
| float a`)`;

`genType mix(` | genType x,
| genType y,
| genBType a`)`;

## Parameters

`x`

  Specify the start of the range in which to interpolate.

`y`

  Specify the end of the range in which to interpolate.

`a`

  Specify the value to use to interpolate between `x` and `y`.

## Description

`mix` performs a linear interpolation between `x` and `y` using `a` to weight between them. The return value is computed as follows: x ⋅ ( 1 − a ) + y ⋅ a .

For the variants of `mix` where `a` is `genBType`, elements for which `a`[i] is `false`, the result for that element is taken from `x`, and where `a`[i] is `true`, it will be taken from `y`. Components of `x` and `y` that are not selected are allowed to be invalid floating point values and will have no effect on the results.
