## Slider Input Widget

### Description

Constructs a slider widget to select a numeric value from a range.

### Usage

    sliderInput(inputId, label, min, max, value, step = NULL, round = FALSE,
      format = NULL, locale = NULL, ticks = TRUE, animate = FALSE,
      width = NULL, sep = ",", pre = NULL, post = NULL, timeFormat = NULL,
      timezone = NULL, dragRange = TRUE)

    animationOptions(interval = 1000, loop = FALSE, playButton = NULL,
      pauseButton = NULL)

### Arguments

`inputId` | The `input` slot that will be used to access the value.
`label` | Display label for the control, or `NULL` for no label.
`min` | The minimum value (inclusive) that can be selected.
`max` | The maximum value (inclusive) that can be selected.
`value` | The initial value of the slider. A numeric vector of length one will create a regular slider; a numeric vector of length two will create a double-ended range slider. A warning will be issued if the value doesn't fit between `min` and `max`.
`step` | Specifies the interval between each selectable value on the slider (if `NULL`, a heuristic is used to determine the step size). If the values are dates, `step` is in days; if the values are times (POSIXt), `step` is in seconds.
`round` | `TRUE` to round all values to the nearest integer; `FALSE` if no rounding is desired; or an integer to round to that number of digits (for example, 1 will round to the nearest 10, and -2 will round to the nearest .01). Any rounding will be applied after snapping to the nearest step.
`format` | Deprecated.
`locale` | Deprecated.
`ticks` | `FALSE` to hide tick marks, `TRUE` to show them according to some simple heuristics.
`animate` | `TRUE` to show simple animation controls with default settings; `FALSE` not to; or a custom settings list, such as those created using `animationOptions`.
`width` | The width of the input, e.g. `'400px'`, or `'100%'`; see `validateCssUnit`.
`sep` | Separator between thousands places in numbers.
`pre` | A prefix string to put in front of the value.
`post` | A suffix string to put after the value.

`timeFormat`

Only used if the values are Date or POSIXt objects. A time format string, to be passed to the Javascript strftime library. See https://github.com/samsonjs/strftime for more details. The allowed format specifications are very similar, but not identical, to those for R's `strftime` function. For Dates, the default is `"%F"` (like `"2015-07-01"`), and for POSIXt, the default is `"%F %T"` (like `"2015-07-01 15:32:10"`).

`timezone` | Only used if the values are POSIXt objects. A string specifying the time zone offset for the displayed times, in the format `"+HHMM"` or `"-HHMM"`. If `NULL` (the default), times will be displayed in the browser's time zone. The value `"+0000"` will result in UTC time.
`dragRange` | This option is used only if it is a range slider (with two values). If `TRUE` (the default), the range can be dragged. In other words, the min and max can be dragged together. If `FALSE`, the range cannot be dragged.
`interval` | The interval, in milliseconds, between each animation step.
`loop` | `TRUE` to automatically restart the animation when it reaches the end.
`playButton` | Specifies the appearance of the play button. Valid values are a one-element character vector (for a simple text label), an HTML tag or list of tags (using `tag` and friends), or raw HTML (using `HTML`).
`pauseButton` | Similar to `playButton`, but for the pause button.

    ## Only run examples in interactive R sessions
    if (interactive()) {

    ui <- fluidPage(
      sliderInput("obs", "Number of observations:",
        min = 0, max = 1000, value = 500
      ),
      plotOutput("distPlot")
    )

    # Server logic
    server <- function(input, output) {
      output$distPlot <- renderPlot({
        hist(rnorm(input$obs))
      })
    }

    # Complete app with UI and server components
    shinyApp(ui, server)
    }
