Message: [QUOTE="Matthew Moss, post: 4554866"] I think the confusion is that I specified input and output to both be integers, but they don't really mean the same thing. Input is always seconds... two minutes is "120", five minutes is "600". Input is NOT the keys you would press. Output is always the keys to press... It would have been clearer, perhaps, if I requested the output as an array such as [1, 2, 0, :cook], or even a string like "120*". When I proposed the problem, I realized that the "*" (cook) button is always part of the output, so I could have the function return an integer and the "*" would be implicit. But this, I think, confused things. So 120 (or "120*") as output means to push, in order, the buttons 1, 2, 0 and *. Which, for a microwave means 1:20, or 80 seconds. Does this clear things up?
