Is there a solution for linking threshold units that can do without the spike time parameter?

[david-hofmann]

In the standard LIF model I have used a parameter for the latest spike time and another one to store spike times. It seems a bit redundant. Can the spike time parameter st be removed and something like strain[end] be used instead?

Neuroblox.jl/src/blox/neuron_models.jl

Lines 121 to 122 in 22995ac

	integ.p[p.st] = integ.t
	push!(integ.p[p.strain], integ.t)

The parameter st is used to link neurons like so:

Neuroblox.jl/test/components.jl

Lines 224 to 231 in 22995ac

	for i = 1:N
	nn = LIFneuron(name=Symbol("lif$i"), I_in=I_in[i], τ=τ[i])
	push!(nrn_network, nn.odesystem)
	push!(nrn_spiketimes, nn.odesystem.st)
	end
	# connect the neurons
	@named syn_net = spikeconnections(sys=nrn_network, psp_amplitude=syn_amp, τ=syn_τ, spiketimes=nrn_spiketimes)

strain[end] wouldn't work, what is the right way to access the latest value of the list given that this is all symbolic?
