+#X text 13 160 Here \, the argument of "5.5" makes this [float] store
+the value 5.5 by default. Clicking the bang makes [float] output the

+#X text 12 411 Some objects can accept many arguments at the same time.
+For example \, you need to tell [route] what kind of data you want
+\, and it will sort it based on the data type:;
+#X obj 152 352 select 5;
+#X floatatom 204 373 5 0 0 1 everything_else - -;

+#X msg 120 329 3;
+#X msg 183 329 7;
+#X text 12 276 Some objects need to have some arguments in order to
+do anything useful. For example \, you can tell [select] which number
+to look for with an argument:;
+#X connect 5 0 7 0;
+#X connect 6 0 5 0;
+#X connect 9 0 13 0;
+#X connect 10 0 14 0;
