Is it possible to start a pipeline with select?  
I am playing around with create\_continuous and I would like to run this code snippet

```auto
select({
	create_continuous(
	[0.0,0.1,0.2],
	[0,500,1000]) as testCurve,
})
->
select({apply_continuous(testCurve, [250,750])})

```

in isolation. Is this possible in RiskScape?

Kia ora,

It certainly is possible - just change the `select({` step to `input(value: {`

I’ve used an example of this in response to your [other post](https://community.riskscape.org.nz/t/what-is-a-scoped-x-scope/193/2)
