Integrator
Module used to integrate its input over time. The output is calculated as, output(t) = alpha * output(t) + beta * input(t). Depending on the constants alpha and beta, the module can be used as leaky integrator or an accumulator. If they are set in the XML-file the constants minimum and maximum set the allowed range of the output. It will be clipped if it is outside the range.

Example
<module
class = "Integrator"
