Sp Command
""""""""""

This command is used to construct a single-point constraint object and add it to the enclosing LoadPattern.

.. function:: sp $nodeTag $dofTag $dofValue


.. csv-table:: 
   :header: "Argument", "Type", "Description"
   :widths: 10, 10, 40

   $nodeTag, |integer|, tag of node to which constraint is applied
   $dofTag, |integer|, the degree-of-freedom at the node to which constraint is applied (1 through ndf)
   $dofValue, |integer|, reference constraint value

.. note::
   
   The $dofValue is a reference value, it is the time series that provides the load factor. (The load factor times the reference value is the constraint that is actually applied to the node)
   
.. admonition:: Example:


   1. **Tcl Code**

   .. code-block:: tcl


   2. **Python Code**

   .. code-block:: python
