I'm trying to implement hyperbolic function, that could use any input signal as an `x` parameter.

taking simple hyperbolic function: y = A / x

where y is output (`any` signal), A is just `A` signal in input, and x would be `Any` signal in input.

That would be really simple, if I could select `any` signal as an denominator in division in arithmetic combinator. But it is impossible.

Do you have any idea on workaround for this? Nothing comes to my mind honestly.

There is no workaround in the general case, besides using O(N) time or O(N) combinators.

In the special case where you have a small set of X values, you can use Y = A * (least_common_multiple / X) / least_common_multiple, with a list of precomputed (least_common_multiple / X) values.
