Hi, there's a third value output in the 'cooked' list that the documentation doesn't explain, but the code refers to as 'temperature'. Does anybody know what it is? Miller? :)
Opened an issue for it => https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/issues/1578
btw, this is me revising and going over the whole documentation of Pd and writing quick references. Almost done!
cheers
It's teh 'center of gravity' of the bonk spectrum, that is, the centroid of the spectrum considered as a distribution. It's intended to be a sort of 'spectral centroid' along the lines of David Wessel's old idea, but measuring the centroid in 'bonk's might correlate bette with perceived brilliance. The word 'temperature' is intended as an analog to 'color temperature' which I believe is a corresponding concept for optical spectra.

Cool, thanks! This is finally documented now :)

Here's another one, there's an undocumented '-ascii' flag in [pd~] we need to document.
see https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/blob/master/extra/pd~/pd~.c#L1136
