Returns the count of array elements that are not equal in identical positions. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamming_distance

The collections are not wrapped - if one array is shorter than the other, the difference in size should be included in the count.[0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0].hammingDistance([0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1]); "SuperMan".hammingDistance("SuperCollider");

Returns the minimum number of changes to modify this SequenceableCollection into the other SequenceableCollection. A change can be: an addition, a deletion, or a substitution. This is known as the Levenshtein Distance and is implemented in SuperCollider using the Wagner–Fischer algorithm.

The default comparison uses identity - see Object: -== and Object: -===

Where both arrays are raw arrays (String, Int16Array, Int32Array, FloatArray etc., or any derived classes), like comparing two strings, a faster primitive will be used to calculate the distance."hello".editDistance("hallo"); // 1 (substitution) "hello".editDistance("hell"); // 1 (deletion) "hello".editDistance("helloo"); // 1 (addition) "hello".editDistance("hllo"); // 1 (removal) "hello".editDistance("haldo"); // 2 (substitutions)

In cases where the arrays are of different types, it will fall back to a slower, non-primitive implementation.// String vs Array "hello".editDistance([$h, $e, $l, $l, $o]);

For cases that require comparisons other than identity, the optional compareFunc can be given to compare elements. This function will be passed two arguments, representing a single element from each array to compare, and this function must return a boolean as to whether or not the elements are equal.// Using compareFunc for case insensitive comparisons "HeLLO".editDistance("HELLO", { |a, b| a.toLower == b.toLower; });

Arguments:

Returns a value between 0 and 1 representing the percentage similarity between this SequenceableCollection and the other SequenceableCollection.

A value of 1 means they are exactly the same, a value of 0 means they are completely different. This is calculated based on the -editDistance"hello".similarity("hello"); // 1 "hello".similarity("asdf"); // 0 "word".similarity("wodr"); // 0.5

Arguments:

Creates a new collection of the results of applying the selector to all elements in the receiver.[1, 2, 3, 4].neg; [1, 2, 3, 4].reciprocal;

Creates a new collection of the results of applying the selector with the operand to all elements in the receiver. If the operand is a collection then elements of that collection are paired with elements of the receiver.([1, 2, 3, 4] * 10); ([1, 2, 3, 4] * [4, 5, 6, 7]);

Calls this.multiChannelPerform(selector, *args) where selector is the name of the message.

This method is called internally on inputs to UGens that take multidimensional arrays, like Klank and it allows proper multichannel expansion even in those cases. For SequenceableCollection, this returns the collection itself, assuming that it contains already a number of Refs. See Ref for the corresponding method implementation.

Arguments:

Convert a rhythm-list to durations.

Discussion:

supports a variation of Mikael Laurson's rhythm list RTM-notation.¹

The method converts a collection of the form [beat-count, [rtm-list], repeats] to a List of Floats. A negative integer within the rtm-list equates to a value tied over to the duration following. The method is recursive in that any subdivision within the rtm-list can itself be a nested convertRhythm collection (see example below). The repeats integer has a default value of 1.

If the divisions in the rtm-list are events, the event durations are interpreted as relative durations, and a list of events is returned.// using numbers as score [3, [1, 2, 1], 1].convertRhythm; // List[ 0.75, 1.5, 0.75 ] [2, [1, 3, [1, [2, 1, 1, 1]], 1, 3], 1].convertRhythm; [2, [1, [1, [2, 1, 1, 1]]], 1].convertRhythm; [2, [1, [1, [2, 1, 1, 1]]], 2].convertRhythm; // repeat [2, [1, [1, [2, 1, 1, -1]]], 2].convertRhythm; // negative value is tied over. // sound example Pbind(\degree, Pseries(0, 1, inf), \dur, Pseq([2, [1, [1, [2, 1, 1, -1]]], 2].convertRhythm)).play;

Discussion:

Example:["ls","/"].unixCmd;

Similar to -unixCmd except that the stdout of the process is returned (synchronously) rather than sent to the post window. This object should be an array of strings where the first string is the path to the executable to be run and all other strings are passed as arguments to the executable.
