[PD] Vanilla method for symbol -> float

[João Pais]

Hi list,

I was trying something without succes, and couldn't find any 
documentation for it as well.


I wanted to split the symbol 2/4 to separate the numbers on both sides 
of the / . No problem using [list fromsymbol] and [list tosymbol] in 
doing that. But, afterwards I can't find a way of turning the symbol 
back to a float, except using an external. Is there any special hack 
somewhere for this?


Best,

JOao
