at least in my opinion the differentiation between a [dac~] and the 'dac~' in general is quite important.
I would love some insight on that. If you or anyone would care to elaborate?
sorry, the [dac~] vs. 'dac~ in general' wasn't a good example at all.
actually it is pretty simple. what i meant here was the distinction between the class 'dac~' and the object 'dac~'. the object 'dac~'
is an intantiation of the class 'dac~', whereas the class 'dac~' is what you would describe in pdpedia.the term 'class' somehow covers all capabilities, that 'dac~' does provide you. you can decide to make use of these capabilities by creating an object [dac~ 2 4], which is another object than [dac~ 1 3] (or even another object than another [dac~ 2 4]).
actually, you never see a class, you just know, that it exists, but
you probably see many [objects] of this class.
Wauw. I don't know how this explanation would work on a complete
newbee, but to me it was both very concise and pedagogical. Thanks.
