My group is in the process of programming a PureData code that reacts to buttons and an IMU sensor connected to an Arduino.
The buttons send values from 0-7 (0 always being the LOW state), currently we have sorted the list of incoming values by ascending order (so 0000001 or 0000012).
However, we want to control the nth value of the incoming numbers because we want it to look more like (1000007 or 1200007). We've looked everywhere and tried almost all of the objects in the PureData object list. Do you have any suggestions? (I have attached our current code)
