I'm designing a calculator for my class project. Right now I'm thinking of approaching something like this:

Create a first message (sending number messages to a receive object & generating a message) which then gets run through an action (+, -, *, /) and is then triggered by a second message (generated the same way as the first).

I can't figure out how to effectively pack the numbers into a cohesive message (I want to be able to use decimal points). Here's what I have so far:

combining-integers-into-one-message

There is no use to have 20 [send]s, you could use only one if they are all have the same name.

>> I can’t figure out how to effectively pack the numbers into a cohesive message

For that, I suggest to look up "pack" in the manual.

There is probably a far more elegant solution to this, but of the top of my head

Many thanks for your help. I streamlined the multiple "send out" objects into one, sent them into a sprintf, and it seems to be working. Onwards!

Combining integers into one message?
