Re: [PD] pd message order?
Technically it seems to be this: they output in reverse creation order. (The last [receive] you created in the patch will output first.) Conceptually, imagine an evil demon changing the order in real-time to screw up your patch. Thwart the demon by using wired connections, trigger, and subpatches to define order. Only use multiple [receive]s when message order doesn't matter.

Re: [PD] pd message order?
IIRC they'll appear in the order the objects were created. To be clear I would use a trigger to explicitly order and send to destinations with different (and meaningful names) In this case the name is best chosen to reflect the intended action, rather than the source. Hope that makes sense. a.

[PD] pd message order?
so standard objects have right to left ordering of outlet processing, but what about send and receive for messages? if multiple objects receive for the same name, which one gets it first? is there a triggerlike object for messages, or should I send multiple messages each with a differentiated tag like s bla1, s bla2, s s bla3 even when I send the same message? ___ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list

Re: [PD] (breaking symbols) was Re: find a list of numbers in a text file
[makefilename] works off of sprintf which allows you to use it's precision modifier; the syntax is a "." followed by a number, sandwiched between the "%" and the type specifier. For symbols, something like "%.2s" means you want a precision of two characters, so [makefilename] will truncate everything after the second character of the symbol. (BTW-- this means it's trivial to make an abstraction in pd that counts the number of characters in a symbol...) So I basically made an outer recursive loop that increments the precision, and an inner iterative loop with [until] that tries to match the symbol at that precision. Since I know your ratio format will only contains digits and a single forward slash, then at most it takes 11 tries to find the first character; once the match is found that known character is prefixed to whatever I'm matching in the next iteration of the outer loop. This contiues until the symbol at the current level of precision matches the original symbol. Finally, a list of floats is accumulated from a counter whose value corresponds to the matched symbol for each outer loop iteration. The idiosyncratic recursion happens when combining the single digits to make the final two values of the numerator and denominator. It's a [list split 1] with the middle outlet to a [t a] that feeds back into the left inlet. This outputs the list backwards-- I'm not exactly sure why, but it's handy in this case because I can just multiply each digit by increasing powers of ten and accumulate to get the final value for the numerator. (Same process for the denominator.) There's the danger of a stack overflow, but it's unlikely that either part of the fraction would have more than 249 digits. Actually now that I look at it, there should be a much greater danger of a stack overflow in the outer loop, because there are seven objects involved in the recursion. But I can still send a 123-character symbol to the abstraction without an overflow. Not sure I understand the relationship between # of objects in recursive chain and max # function calls before stack overflow. -Jonathan > >From: Alexandre Torres Porres >To: pd-lista puredata ; Jonathan Wilkes >Sent: Wednesday, August 3, 2011 11:44 AM >Subject: Re: [PD] (breaking symbols) was Re: find a list of numbers in a text >file > > >Yeah, [s2l], that's the one I knew it existed but couldn't remember.

you could also just take the code of zexy's [symbol2list] object. it does exactly what you describe. You can also use [splitfilename] with [fromsymbol] for that. my Click Tracker (http://code.google.com/p/clicktracker/) uses exactly the 4/4, 7/8, etc. format. If you look for the subpatch [pd x/y-konv], the 4/4 to "4 4" conversion is isolated there. of course, a more efficient/intuitive solution would also be desirable - as for complex manipulation of symbols in general, there is Pd still a bit too limited.

My [tunetof] abstraction from 2006 uses a python script to convert Scala files to a format, Pd can easily import to a [table] See http://lists.puredata.info/pipermail/pd-list/2006-04/037184.html ff. It's in the Pd repository at /abstractions/footils/tunetof Maybe you can make use of the Python parser?
