Re: [PD] What exactly is a "stack overflow" ?

Hallo, Andy Farnell hat gesagt: // Andy Farnell wrote:

Until is the only conditional in Pd we have (unless you construct your own messages with feedback arrangement) that gives a deferred conditional after executing at least once, just like DO-WHILE or REPEAT-UNTIL. If you constrain it with numbers then it's logically a FOR(range) construct.

If people want to make sure to not be bitten by the endless loop, they could just use

[inlet] | [b] | [f 1000000000000] | [inlet] | | [until] | [outlet]

as an abstraction called: [funtil] It will bang 1000000000000 times unless stopped, which is more bangs for the bang than most people would want.
