Store a decimal number float can store and output any given floating-point number. Cycling '74 Max Data bang Outputs Value, int Sets and Outputs Value TEXT_HERE Set Value Without Output TEXT_HERE Value TEXT_HERE TEXT_HERE Sets an initial value to be stored in float. If there is no argument, the initial value is 0.0. A float argument by itself, without the word float, is another way of creating and initializing a float object. In left inlet: Sends the stored value out the outlet. In left inlet: Sends the stored value out the outlet. Converted to float. Converted to float. In left inlet: The number replaces the currently stored value and is sent out the outlet. In left inlet: The number replaces the currently stored value and is sent out the outlet. In right inlet: The number replaces the stored value without triggering output. In right inlet: The number replaces the stored value without triggering output. In left inlet: The word send, followed by a name of a receive object, sends the number stored in the float object to all receive objects with that name, without sending it out the float object's outlet. In left inlet: The word send, followed by a name of a receive object, sends the number stored in the float object to all receive objects with that name, without sending it out the float object's outlet. In left inlet: The word set, followed by a number, replaces the stored value without triggering output. In left inlet: The word set, followed by a number, replaces the stored value without triggering output. A number is stored in float as a single-precision floating point number. The precision possible in the decimal portion of the number decreases as the integer part increases. Note: Because of the way decimal numbers are stored, a float value saved in a patcher file might be slightly altered when the file is reopened.
