Well, the new mode has all received messages coming out netreceive's outlet. You can then "route" them where you want them.

The old version allows netreceive to send messages to any named object in Pd. An intruder could easily use this to break into your system, which is why I changed it. But also the new version seems more modular (you can have an abstraction that receives from different port numbers and routes the messages differently for example.)

What is the new and old behavior? I was thinking of using these objects.

Thanks in Advance.

Can anyone just remind me of how to create arrays using the 'table' object? Does it need a 'bang' to make the table and draw the graph? Does it actually draw a graph?

basically table is just a subpatch that has a array named after the first creation argument of table. You can refer to this array either by the name you supplied as the creation argument (using standar array messages), or by sending messages into its inlet which will be sent to the array object in turn.

oh, one more thing if the guys at pure-data.org feel like serving it off their website, it's ok.

Hi all,

I know I'm 2 years late and about 2 weeks late since my last promise but I'm still trying to get those tutorials going. I haven't had much time lately and I will be tied up for a couple of weeks so I decided to post whatever I have done so far. I haven't yet an html version suitable for posting on the internet but that will come, too (in fact it's being delayed as I'm trying to learn Zope while working out the html'd version of the pd tutorial). So, for now it's in .pdf format with a couple of example patches. get it at http://www.music.mcgill.ca/~mis/tests.

There should be enough to get a newbie started but not enough to make him intermadiate. Feel free to send any constructive criticisms. And report any problems reading the document. It's been created on a mac....

cheers. ./MiS .

I'm hoping someday that the "data structures" objects will be powerful enough to replace explode... this might take a while though!

You can get tables upside down by setting the y range from 1 to 0, for instance, instead of 0 to 1; perhaps that's what's happening...

Qs:

will PD ever benefit from explode extern?

Also, I've noticed a weird behaviour with table. I've been writing to the table (an automated hanning window generation) and the curve in the table appears upside down... But the values are correct (ie the ramp from 0 to 1 reads as positive). SO it looks like just the display is fliped. All other tests with arrays are fine. I'm using kalashnikov extern to generate the values and that's the only case where I get things upside down...

any ideas?
