Hello,

Some stuff that may pique your interest:

- [Data \ Processing.org](https://processing.org/tutorials/data/)
- [Table \ Language (API) \ Processing 3+](https://processing.org/reference/Table.html)
- [split() \ Language (API) \ Processing 3+](https://processing.org/reference/split_.html)

I use the last one when receiving a String of data that is comma separated from the Arduino.
