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

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?

Thank you for all of the responses. Now I have to get to work on this.

Ah. So you can buy them.

And yeah, I kind of want to know more how it works. . . perhaps. Then explicitly use it. Or use Pd plugin.

Hello,
I am working on a new patch for a piece already made. The composer mentions a GRM plug-in called "Shuffling" for the granulation in Max.

Is there a comparable patch for Pd?

I do not think I have GRM downloaded. Is that only for Max?

Hey all,
I want to research the two ways of creating drums sounds in pure data. I am leaning toward synthesis more control and such, but do not want to get half way into it and realize that samples are better.

I was looking for articles on this, but have not found enough research to be satisfied yet.

Thoughts? Any help?

@whale-av Right. Drawing the table might be a problem.

@bocanegra I have run up against the showing of the patch. I guess I really need to figure out how to do that effectively. I am using lots of two libraries I have created and do not know how to send the patch for others to be able to upload it.

@jameslo Thank you. I will look at that patch.
