Ok , thanks for cyclone's stuff , and excuse me for speaking french . My question was about format a number so it "looks like" 1.12345e+02 instead of 112.345 . The atached file is the more simple i can do , but it's heavy , and i thought that there was a simpler way to bypass this "convertion".
a) your patch is buggy. it does not take care of execution-order and thus produces the wrong results (independent of any float2symbol conversion); try using [trigger] as much as possible
b) i was really amazed, that [makefilename] can only handle integers. a quick look at the source-code verified this...too bad
c) the really "heavy" thing is the multiple conversion to symbols (pd is not *really* strong in symbol handling)
d) if you don't care about quantization (obviously you don't as your patch has shown), what about this
| [* 1000] | [int] | [/ 1000] | | [/ 100] | [makesymbol %se+02] |
(the first three object are only for quantization)
