title: Arduino-Processing Serial.send/Serial.get interaction
body: <p>I'm trying to get my Arduino environment to send data to processing for a data visualization project.</p>
  
  <p>I have managed to get the handshake working and can Serial.println(...) to print the data I need from Arduino to the Processing console. What I need now is to somehow use that data to alter a variable within Processing. </p>
  
  <p>I know that neither of the methods that I mention in the title exist within the Serial class but I was hoping someone would know how to manage this functionality.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
