Read the equation
This conditional returns one when the centered bias is positive and zero otherwise. The result is a single shared mask bit in this version’s gate update, unlike the earlier index-dependent mask. It is a deterministic threshold rule, not a probability of a gate flip.

How it works
Read the definition from its right-hand expression to the quantity on the left. Its surrounding source records the intended input, state, or parameter context. Where the source leaves an operation unspecified, this page preserves that gap.
Assumptions & limits
Source recovery establishes that the expression appears in this record. Its mathematical validity, implementation behavior, and interpretation must be assessed separately. See the linked source and research notes for the checks available for this version.
Original context

9.2 Combined Bias bias = fract(phase_DNA + phase_Fib) - 0.5 // [Eq. 82] flip = (bias > 0) ? 1 : 0 // [Eq. 83] 9.3 Gate Transition state[i] = ((state[i] XOR input[i]) XOR flip) AND 1 // [Eq. 84] The two incommensurate phases (DNA at δ ≈ 1/φ³, Fibonacci at 1/φ) create quasi-periodic patterns that never exactly repeat.
Exact original notation
flip = (bias > 0) ? 1 : 0 // [Eq. 83]
Sources & provenance
flip = (bias > 0) ? 1 : 0 // [Eq. 83]
flip = (bias > 0) ? 1 : 0 // [Eq. 83]
