Hi, I'm brand-new with PD. I'm on Tutorial "03.connections", and I'm a firm believer in not advancing to the next level of complexity until you fully understand the level you're on. So....
The first bit of text in the Tutorial says that input to the rightmost inlet causes the function do be done. However, what follows is an example of an addition object that only executes when the leftmost inlet receives input. (The rightmost input acts as an argument for the operation in this case.)
So, my question is this: is there something special about the "+" object that makes it an exception to the "rightmost" rule all the time, or is there something special about the way it's set up that makes it an exception to the rule?
Thanks in advance for helping a novice! rs
