Similar object to param, but not gen?

Hi everyone,

sorry if this is a silly question. I'd like to know if there is an object similar to param, to be used in a regular patch, not in gen; i.e. an object whos name argument I can put in the place of any integer/float in other objects, so that I can change the value of many objects without having to individually manually change them.

Thanks in advance!

#0, #1, #2, etc. are helpful to know about, too. Look at "Arguments and Special Characters in Max - $ and #" in the documentation for more info
