Abstract
A data processing system comprises a pressure-sensitive input device for assigning a floating-point value to a parameter under control of a pressure applied to the device. The system is operative to detect a rate of change of the pressure to control the assigning, e.g., to validate the current value as being input or to unlock the value as set.
