ee.PixelType

Returns a PixelType of the given precision with the given limits per element, and an optional dimensionality.

Usage	Returns
`ee.PixelType(precision, minValue, maxValue, dimensions)`	PixelType

Argument	Type	Details
`precision`	Object	The pixel precision, one of 'int', 'float', or 'double'.
`minValue`	Number, default: null	The minimum value of pixels of this type. If precision is 'float' or 'double', this can be null, signifying negative infinity.
`maxValue`	Number, default: null	The maximum value of pixels of this type. If precision is 'float' or 'double', this can be null, signifying positive infinity.
`dimensions`	Integer, default: 0	The number of dimensions in which pixels of this type can vary; 0 is a scalar, 1 is a vector, 2 is a matrix, etc.

print(ee.PixelType('int', 0, 1));  // int ∈ [0, 1]
print(ee.PixelType('int', -20, -10));  // int ∈ [-20, -10]
print(ee.PixelType('float'));  // float
print(ee.PixelType('double'));  // double
print(ee.PixelType('double', null));  // double
print(ee.PixelType('double', null, null));  // double
print(ee.PixelType('double', null, null, 0));  // double
print(ee.PixelType('double', null, null, 1));  // double, 1 dimensions
print(ee.PixelType('double', null, null, 2));  // double, 2 dimensions
print(ee.PixelType('double', null, null, 3));  // double, 3 dimensions
print(ee.PixelType('double', null, null, 10));  // double, 10 dimensions
print(ee.PixelType('double', null, null, 1e8));  // double, 100000000 dimensions

print(ee.PixelType('double', 1, 2, 0));  // double ∈ [1, 2]
print(ee.PixelType('double', 1, 3, 2));  // double ∈ [1, 3], 2 dimensions
print(ee.PixelType('double', -4, -3, 0));  // double ∈ [-4, -3]

print(ee.PixelType('double', null, 2.3, 0));  // double
print(ee.PixelType('double', 3.4, null, 0));  // double
