But if you look at the Max docs where they say, "the word 'set'
followed by a number", there's not even that.And so... how are the Max docs related to how Pd should be
documented?...They are widely regarded and good to learn from, and Pd is part of
the Max family.Yeah, but that doesn't give a specific reason why a specific aspect
of the Max docs should be the reference in the case of this specific
question.
Pd's type system is directly related to Max/MSP's type system. That's
a good reason to read the Max/MSP docs.
