Isn't this exactly what every A/D converter does?
For a graph of Vin to digital output it basically approximates the nearest digital value to the continuous signal ->
So I don't see the difference between them.
A successive approximation ADC is a type of analog-to-digital converter that converts a continuous analog waveform into a discrete digital representation via a binary search through all possible quantization levels before finally converging upon a digital output for each conversion.
