The output looks entirely reasonable. Maybe your spreadsheet application expects floating pointer numbers in the German format (comma instead dot)? If yes, there surely is an option to change that. Either way, the problem is not on the side of Pd. ​ Am 9. Mai 2021, 18:36, um 18:36,

thanks for the answers. i'm not asking about double-precision here. @Christof [makefilename %d] together with [text] works: in the spreadsheet the 'text' in the output file is seen as numbers. with [makefilename %f] this is not the case.

One has 64-bit address bus width and the other has 64-bit data bus width. "double precision" has nothing to do with the data bus width. It just means that "t_float" and "t_sample" are defined as "double" instead of "float". So "single precision"/"double precision" and "32-bit"/"64-bit" are

Thanks for stressing the differences between 64bit and double precision! However, I think it's not about double precision, either. Single precision only becomes an issue if you need more than 23 bits precision (which is not the case here). The actual issue is how Pd *prints* floating point

there have been a few discussions around this last year (in which i was involved). 1. its not about pd 64bit (that is liekly already running on your machine)! its about pd double precision, which is possible to compile easily (as i found out, being a noob) 2. regarding the makefilename

If your numbers are integers, you can convert them to symbols with [makefilename %d] and add them to a text file, e.g. with [text set]. If the numbers are floats, you can use [makefilename %f]. Unlike %g, the %f specifier prevents the use of scientific notation. See also

hi, i'm struggling with the way Pd handles numbers bigger then 99. i have an array with thousands of numbers, which i write to a file to analyse them. however, as soon as a number is bigger then 99 i get the abbreviated notation and am loosing the lower digits. in Pd i can make a
