What is it

Any number the system computes — a price, an indicator value, an average, a count, a math result. The most common data type on the canvas.

Root family for any computed numeric quantity or series — prices, indicators, oscillators, stats, counts, math results, numeric time features. Generic numeric sinks demand num with dtype=None so any leaf (num.rsi, num.atr, num.macd, …) subsumes in (rule 6c).
