array.tuplewise Reference

Make an array of a certain size (counting iterations)

array.tuplewise

Discussion

array.tuplewise accepts a number in the right inlet which specifies the length of the output array. Following the receipt of this number, the object will collect this number of elements input through the left inlet. After the array-length is complete, and with each subsequent input, the array will be output from the left outlet. An index (0-based) will be output from the right outlet along with each array sent from the left outlet, counting upward since the creation of the object, or since the last clear was received. Use the clear message to reset the index to 0.

Arguments

None.

array
