Hey,
This is helpful. Can you help explain how the variables work? I am trying to understand it.

Hey all,
My composition now for electric cello and pd is being released on Parma Recordings, Mind and Machine, Vol. V on September 23, 2023.

In preparation for the release I am doing a couple of concerts in Chicago. I will be doing a concert at Constellation on Sunday, August 27, 2023 at 8:30pm Central. The concert will be livestreamed as well. I will be using Pd as well to accompany Cage's Lecture on Nothing. Would love to see some of you there.

Hmmm.... iemguts is not working for me. It has been awhile since I have uploaded a library of objects.

iemguts-0.1 was what I was trying to upload. Any ideas on why it is not working? I am on a mac. and using pd 51.4.

Trying to use canvasselect but it cannot be found.

Any ideas?

I am trying to make this work, but am struggling.

Here is the message I am sending:

find [object_name] [number 0f object created to delete]

but I am getting this message:

hjh, I get it. The thing is that I am trying to just write the "number" for a date. . . . so, it feels rather wrong, but I get it. Without double precision, a "number" can only be indicated to six digits. . . I do not know the exact number but I get the idea.

I was trying to write a date as a number. . . . yes, I can do it other ways, but this was a "simple" way I was hoping to do it. It is cool that I cannot, but there is another piece I want to write that requires even more detail than double precision. The other thing is that I cannot even write the number as a symbol which seems even more annoying.

Anyway, I am good with it all. Just wish we could have more precision.

And so there is no way to expand the number of digits a number can have? Seems counter to an application that uses numbers in composition. I can imagine there are some workarounds, but I wish there was a way to expand the numbers allowed to assess.

It seems that the == object cannot assess a number with seven digits.

I am not getting that result though.

Look at the message box at the bottom. I wrote the example too quickly.MathProblem.pd

**raynovich**

Is there a way to expand the range of numbers? Here is an example patch that shows a version of the problem. It is just one example of the issue. Is there no easy workaround?
