Hi there,
this is probably really noob.
I banged my head several times yesterday while trying to route a bang in pd - in other words: I wanted an object that takes bang at its left inlet and a simple 0/1 at its right. The bang should then be routed to either the left or the right outlet, according to the right inlet. The solution I finally came up with is to convert the bang to a number, use moses to do the actual routing and convert the numbers moses spits out to bangs again. Not quite an elegant solution, I guess - I appreciate any hints.
With kind regards, Thoralf.

you defintiely want Zexy for stuff that should proably be core list/data manip operations (at least i think thats where demux is from)
#N canvas 0 0 454 304 12; #X obj 222 55 demux; #X obj 259 30 tgl 15 0 empty empty empty 0 -6 0 8 -262144 -1 -1 0 1 ; #X obj 88 7 bng 15 250 50 0 empty empty empty 0 -6 0 8 -262144 -1 -1 ; #X obj 240 76 bng 15 250 50 0 empty empty empty 0 -6 0 8 -262144 -1 -1; #X obj 150 81 bng 15 250 50 0 empty empty empty 0 -6 0 8 -262144 -1 -1; #X connect 0 0 4 0; #X connect 0 1 3 0; #X connect 1 0 0 1; #X connect 2 0 0 0;

Thank you for your answers. demux is what I've been looking for, although the sel - solution provides a really cool solution as well ...
Thanks, Thoralf.

Hi Thoralf,
I think you could use the select object for that; the select-object alternates the bang between the left and right outlet, depending on the creation argument [1/0] of the right inlet. If you send a bang to the left inlet via a message [1] the bang is routed to the left or right outlet, according to 1/0 [creation argument] on the right inlet.
Maybe this is what you want.
Ciao,
Sara

Here is a solution using built-in Pd objects (if you don't mind creating an abstraction).
See attached.

It might be a good idea to put this into the documentation somewhere. Inevitably, everyone stumbles upon converting/routing datatypes when using pd, and the existing docs on this topic are a little on the short side ...
Speaking of docs, is the pd documentation project still alive? I could write something about VJing with pd.
With kind regards, Thoralf.
