Hi SSC and Forum, I was wondering, or actually trying to figure out... (parentheses) , I read on pg. 216 "You can override precedence rules by placing an expression within parentheses" as my "non-computer programing mind" understands this... means that any expressions placed within ( ) gets compiled first? if that is the case, that's fairly straight foward.. however I'm a bit lost wondering what or why would I want to place an expression within ( ), I guess I'm looking for a very very simple example to demystify the reason for ( ), so I would know when, why, where to use ( ). As in the case for "array's", as I understand can be a "list of instructions" prefaced by a sharp sign. Again, why and when would one want to use "array's" within a parameter field? a specific parameter field? -->"Why"<--(is the universe infinite!) -->"Where" <--( is the universe?) thanks, IP: Logged |

" I guess I'm looking for a very very simple example to demystify the reason for ( ), so I would know when, why, where to use ( )." 2 * 3 + 1 = 7 "Again, why and when would one want to use "array's" within a parameter field? a specific parameter field?" Some parameter fields expect more than one value; for example, the Pitches field in an AnalogSequencer Sound or the Amplitudes field in a SyntheticSpectrumFromArray. "-->"Why"<--(is the universe infinite!)" " -->"Where" <--( is the universe?)" :-) thanks, IP: Logged |

>"-->"Why"<--(is the universe infinite!)" >Infinity is a process, not a size. That is, I can measure the walls of my room infinite times, but my room it's no infinite. It's interesting to see an infinite enclosed in a finite, like a brownian motion. But If we think better we see that a process it's something that depend of the observer, where is the start and end? A process is something subjective. Maybe Infinity it's only a subjective concept, or a byproduct of our finite mind: If you know that you can't know all, the solution of our mind is to create the Infinity concept. It's like to think that my room it's infinite because I can measure it with infinite precision. The real is "I'm sitting in my room" and I have not space for a piano. No doubt, the Universe is finite and all of us are little particles dancing brownian music  (Sorry for the offtopic, I like the Infinite...) IP: Logged |

this makes me begin to think that infinity may not exsist, at least not in our reality. I mean we can begin to count from 0,1,2,3...but we're not able to infinitely count. So if the universe is in it's process of expanding I wonder what's at the very edge of that, or the very begining.. or end (the part that is to become the universe). (maybe the aliens know and understand infinity as I beleive them to exsist in a different reality, among this reality). thanks for implanting the thought! IP: Logged |
