I complained about the Pd input example in the forums, so I fixed it.

I think the sliders are now what the author of the original patch was aiming for.

3 steady stream sliders & 3 random values, toggle buttons to turn each one on and off. You can turn them both on at the same time, but I don't know why you'd want to.

The sliders (and processing) are on when you open the patch. I put the guts in subpatches because it was getting messy. Has 'print' built-in so users can watch values in the Pd console.
The [+ 0.0001] in [pd sliderguts] is because that's the least-obtrusive way I've found to convert integers to floats in Pd. The [metro 12] is an arbitrary "really small value" between output signals. No, I don't know why the sliders periodically send 3 zeroes.

The random part sends a signal sort of like the Python example, except every 300 ms.

@fiebrink1 Could you at least, as an educator, give me some feedback on why this has been sitting here for a year?
