About

A Max-abstraction that generates Lindenmayer System string expansions based on a custom set of rules, axiom and number of generations. It returns a message with the resulted array/string from the production rules. Rules are stored in a dictionary and can be accessed from outside the abstraction, or can refer to an external dictionary. Custom rules are very powerful for making more complex systems which can be very interesting for algorithmic composition. The help-file contains a few examples on how to use it for rhythm, melody and relative intervals. The system is generated in javascript and outputs a max-message of the values returned based on the rules. Rules can consist of integers, floats, symbols/strings and single characters.
