*GET Y-POINTS FROM CURVE AS CSV*
================================

Extracts the Y-point values from a curve object and returns them as a comma-separated string. Use this worker when you need to serialize a curve's Y data for downstream text-based processing or export.

When to use
-----------

Classification: **process**.

Tagged: ``comma-separated``, ``csv``, ``curve``, ``extract``, ``serialize``, ``y-points``.

Inputs
------

.. list-table::
   :header-rows: 1
   :widths: 20 20 20 20 20 20

   * - Label
     - ID
     - Type
     - Default
     - Required
     - Description
   * - Curve
     - curve
     - vector
     - —
     - 
     - The input curve object (vector) whose Y values will be extracted; leave unconnected only if the worker is being tested in isolation.

Outputs
-------

.. list-table::
   :header-rows: 1
   :widths: 20 20 20 20

   * - Label
     - ID
     - Type
     - Description
   * - curve_get_x_output_1
     - curve_get_x_output_1
     - text
     - Comma-separated string of all Y-axis values from the input curve (e.g. '1.0,2.5,3.7,...'); dimensionless text, units depend on the source curve.
