I'm trying to generate simple decimal list from 0 to 9, but with the zero before Int: 01 or 05 for exemple.

I tryied with sprintf symout%02d, but I get symout symbol attached to my integers and I do't want it!!!

And when I use a space between symout and %, I get a ", and I don't want it either...

message

number

sprintf

I need it to send octet messages to control a motor.

If this is a serial communication, everything is ok with sprintf symout %02d, 

"01" will be sent as 48 49 ascii, without quotas. Or "31" as 51 49.

just add atoi in front of serial object. 

"01" will be sent as 48 49 ascii, without quotas. Or "31" as 51 49.


Ok! Thank you very much. I'm sorry, as a beguiner my next question may be stupid: What does the atoi obect is usefull here when I need to send 01 ou 03 for exemple?

You asked how to send 01 02 etc. and not "01" "02".

Atoi converts ascii chars to integers and ignores quotation marks

I have no idea why You need to send 01 instead of 1, can You explain that ?

created by symout.

Hello, I'm so sorry, I haven't seen your answer, and I've worked with Python since. But now, I try again to find out the solution with max. 

I need those ZERO because I have to send modbus hexadecimals strings to command a motor, and they need their complete codes. That's why

If You need to send hex values just send integer values without zero.

02 is 2 , 09 is 9, A is 10, 3f is 63 etc.

Just convert hex messages to int messages.

That should work.

Hello, thank you very much. I think I got it!

Now I would have an other question about the serial transmission please:

In Max Console, I would like to check what serial object is really transmitting, and I just get the status bits written. Do you know how to check the whole string tansmitted throught the SERIAL object?

I am afraid there is no way to print data that serial object sends to max status window.

You need to monitor it outside of max, on receiving side.

Or at least I don't know of it.
