The end. only that many Fanout(2) problems originate in a Fanout(1) design, where at some point the patch was extended and branches where execution order did not matter suddenly are merged again in a way where execution order *does* matter. i think that most patchers have heard about [trigger] and it's merits, it just doesn't occur to them that in their specific patch execution order does matter. i dare say that most of the buggy patches posted here (and elsewhere) are buggy exactly because a Fanout(1) mutated into a Fanout(2). as for simon's asynchronous semantics of fan-out, it's probably better to start using it only *after* it has been implemented. conclusion: always make execution order explicit, even if you currently don't care about it. the end. fgmadrs IOhannes signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

Fanout(1) = the order in which child chains are computed does not matter and doesn't need to be explicit Trigger(1) = the order in which child chains are computed does matter and is explicit Trigger(2) = the order in which child chains are computed doesn't matter but for aesthetic reasons is made explicit Fanout(2) = the order in which child chains are computed does matter and is ambiguous. When reading a patch, one may confuse Trigger(2) for Trigger(1), but that's no big deal because ordering is explicit either way. When reading a patch, one may confuse Fanout(2) for Fanout(1), and that could cause a run time error. Therefore, the user should never use Fanout(2). In the png the chain stops at the fanned out number boxes, so the ordering cannot matter. Therefore, the png must be an example of Fanout(1). As such, the png cannot be an example of teaching people to use fanout instead of trigger _unless_ you mean Trigger(2) should _always_ be preferred to Fanout(1). If Trigger(2) is always preferred to Fanout(1), then there is no way to visually signify when ordering doesn't matter. Therefore, in cases where crossed wires or other ambiguities are not an issue, Fanout(1) is preferable to Trigger(2). Conclusion: teach Fanout(1) and Trigger(2) for situations where ordering doesn't matter, and Trigger(1) for situations where it does.

The end. also, in a potential future with some kinds of parallelism in pd, taking Fanout (rather than Trigger) as an explicit statement that the branches are not dependent on order of execution is quite interesting, and very consistent with the ideal that Fanout order is undefined. But that is a dream-space a long way off for pd as it is now. Simon ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management - http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

But that is a dream-space a long way off for pd as it is now. Of course interpreting Fanout as allowing asynchronous execution of the branches is somewhat stronger than taking Fanout to mean what it currently does, which is that the branches can be completed in any arbitrary sequence.
