Hi List!
Can a random number form 0 to 100 be generated with the following requirements:
- No externals / Vanilla Pd only
- DSP must be off
- The patch is loaded with Pd through command line interface i.e.
pd -noprefs -nogui givemerandom.pd
- The output should not always be the same number
If you happen to start Pd always from bash / command-line, you do something like this:
pd -noprefs -nogui givemerandom.pd -send "seed $RANDOM"
and in your patch:
[r seed] | [seed $1( | [random]
However, I also would be interested in a solution that works without command-line arguments.
