+#X text 27 17 WHAT IS AN ARRAY IN PURE DATA?;
+#X text 45 42 Arrays \, in most programming environments \, are considered
+to be "a sequence of objects all of which have the same variable type"
+wherein each object is called an element and the elements are numbered
+in a row 0 \, 1 \, 2 \, 3 \, etc. These numbers are called indices.
+Each index holds a corresponding value.;
+#X text 46 222 Arrays in PD look like this:;
+#N canvas 0 0 450 300 graph18 0;
+#X array example_array 100 float 0;
+#X coords 0 1 99 -1 200 140 1;
+#X restore 277 225 graph;
+#X text 63 486 1 Right-click on the array and select "Properties" from
+the menu. Two dialogue boxes will open - one called "graph" and one
+called "array".;
+#X text 64 543 2 Then right-click again on the array and select "Help"
+from the menu. The window that opens is the table.pd help document.
+;
+#X text 45 148 All of this is true in PD \, except that arrays in PD
+can only hold floating point data. (other data types in PD are called
+"lists" or "anythings" and require different tools to manipulate them.)
+;
+#X text 45 378 The array above is actually only the horizontal line!
+The rectangle surrounding the array is called a "graph". These two
+objects are separate \, but PD creates both simoultaneously for purposes
+of convenience. These two objects together are called a "table". To
+see what I mean by all of this:;

+#X text 25 32 Arrays in PD are different than the arrays in other languages
+primarily because \, in PD \, they are designed to be displayed graphically
+on screen. This is due to the nature of audio synthesis - we want to
+see our wave forms and visually understand the data. That's why arrays
+in PD are complicated by other objects like tables \, graphs and widgets.
+PD uses these objects to provide a graphic representation of the array
+data. If you're not interested in seeing the array data within your
+PD patch \, you can use the [table] object to store the array and corresponding
+table in a sub-window. Note that [table]s are more CPU friendly than
+their graphical counterpart.;

+tools to manipulate arrays and their data.;

+wave forms using PD arrays \, but the aural result is sometimes distorted
+and unpleasant. Hence \, higher math functions help our digital tools
+to produce data which can effectively be converted to analog signals

+#X text 49 60 Arrays are versatile. Their simple structure make them
+useful in countless situations. This page discusses perhaps the most
+common applications.;
+#X text 50 225 2 MIDI Sequencers: array values limited to a range between
+0 and 127 are suitable for MIDI output to be used as pitch \, velocity
+\, or controller numbers. Some MIDI information requires a much larger
+range \, such as pitch benders.;
+#X text 50 306 3 Envelopes: an array with four elements can be used
+effectively as an ADSR enveloper. There are numerous examples of this
+in other PD help documents.;
+#X text 53 377 4 Math and conversion tables: arrays are an excellent
+visual tool when performing fourier analysis and other higher mathematic
+functions.;
+#X text 54 450 5 Wave editing: with proper manipulation of array data
+\, PD can be fully functional wave editor \, complete with mouse-clickable
+cut-n-paste \, pitch-shift \, time expansion \, down/upsampling \,
+and other tools typically found in commercial wave editors.;
+#X text 49 128 1 Audio sample data: when an array's values are limited
+to a range between -1 and 1 \, the numbers are suitable for conversion
+to analog audio signal. These arrays are typically many thousands of
+elements and stored on hard disk in the form of aiff \, wav or pure
+text.;

+external to your "pd/extra" folder before continuing. Some of these

+#X text 504 12 THE ALTERNATIVE EXPLAINED;
+#X text 499 33 The [mtof] object is really just a function defined
+in PD's source code - which is programmed in "C".;
+#X text 497 67 As such \, it operates very quickly. If a similar function
+were to be created using PD's arithmetic objects \, the process would
+be quite a bit slower. How much slower?;
+#X text 498 409 As well \, notice that RESULT C (the output from PD's
+basic arithmetic objects) is not as accurate as the other two methods:
+[mtof] and/or [expr]. This is because the message boxes and the [*]
+object round off the operands because they cannot handle enough decimal
+places.;
+#X text 498 200 The first order of business performed by these examples
+is the filtering out of all numbers less than -1500 and greater than
+1499 (Just like the [mtof] source code). In other words \, "overflows
+and underflows are clipped" as Miller Puckette stated in the original
+documentation for this object.;
+#X text 22 62 MIDI notes usually range between 0 and 127 from an incoming
+MIDI controller. However \, in PD negative numbers to -1500 and positive
+numbers to 1499 are also supported and decimal places can be used to
+achive microtonal pitches.;

+places.;

+#X text 472 36 WHY THE DISCREPANCIES BETWEEN CLOCKS?;
+#X text 475 59 In a fantasy world \, computers could exist somehow
+beyond the restrictions of time and digital computation could be performed
+in ZERO time. However \, that is not the case. Instead \, every process
+within PD and within your operating system requires at least a few
+nanoseconds of your CPU's time.;

+#X text 476 144 The [timer] object is like a clock that is not constrained
+to the regular laws of physics and the universal space-time continuum.
+It reports "time" measurements as only PD can see them!;
+#X text 477 203 The [cputime] object is like a clock that measures
+how much time your CPU actually required to carry out your request.
+Keep in mind however that your CPU is busy doing many things simoultaneously
+\, so even though a process might take 5 minutes to complete \, your
+CPU does not pay full attention to that process for the entire 5 minutes.
+Instead \, it simply begins the process \, then refers back to that
+process from time to time until the it is complete. In other cases
+\, your CPU might require a full 5 minutes while PD might report that
+merely a few milliseconds have passed. This type of discrepancy depends
+heavily on your computer's hardware and the type of processing it is
+performing.;

+#X text 16 13 MULTI-CHANNEL AUDIO;
+#X text 32 40 All sound cards are capable of at least two channels
+of audio. PD supports these two channels by default and uses your system's
+generic audio drivers to communicate with your hardware. However \,
+for faster input/output and for more than two channels of audio \,
+PD incorporates the use of "PortAudio" which uses ASIO drivers to communicate
+with your hardware. So \, to instruct PD to use more than two channels
+of audio \, your command line should read like below:;
+#X text 93 182 c:/pd/bin/pd.exe -pa -inchannels 8 -outchannels 8;
+#X text 32 211 The "-pa" switch means "PortAudio". This switch is new
+as of PD version 0.37 TEST 4 and replaces the old "-asio" switch.;
+#X text 32 271 The "-inchannels" and "-outchannels" switches can be
+summarized by using "-channels 8" because currently PortAudio requires
+that the number of incoming and outgoing channels must be equal. This
+may change in the PD's future...;
+#X text 32 361 To further optimize PD's usage of your audio hardware
+\, you can explore the following:;
+#X text 42 402 - audiobuf;
+#X text 43 420 - blocksize;
+#X text 42 436 - audioindev;
+#X text 42 454 - audiooutdev;
+#X text 38 480 With the right hardware \, PD can manage audio input
+and output with lower than 10 milliseconds of latency.;

+using the "floating point standard". In such a number \, the decimal
+point can "float" meaning that there is no fixed number of digits preceding
+or following the decimal. A floating point number is therefore a computer's
+approximation of a real number.;
+#X text 43 453 Interesting side-note: In the early 1990's \, the Intel
+80486 was shipped with a math coprocessor to help accelerate the process
+of computing floating point numbers (which previously required a considerable
+amount of CPU power.) Math coprocessors have since found there way

+#X text 20 18 GRAIN RATE;
+#X text 32 38 The "grain rate" of [line] is the rate at which it will
+output its values. The faster the grain is \, the smoother the ramp
+will appear. While slower grain rates will produce a more disjunct
+ramp. Of course this setting will alter the amount of CPU that the
+[line] object will require. Higher rates require more computation.
+;
+#X text 33 144 This means simply that [line] will output a new value
+between its current value and your new value once every 20 milliseconds.
+;
+#X text 33 125 The default grain rate is 20 milliseconds.;
+#X text 30 192 [line]'s optional creation arguments can be used to
+reset the grain rate. However \, the grain rate cannot be reset dynamically.
+;
+#X text 32 247 First creation argument is the initial value: the starting
+point of the first ramp.;
+#X text 31 286 The second creation argument sets the grain rate. Observe
+the following two examples to see how the grain rate effects the output.

+#X text 520 326 A new value for the first element will reset the first

+;
+#X text 451 16 Perhaps the best way to build creation arguments is
+to define the data types that [pack] should expect at each inlet: (i.e.
+floats \, symbols \, or pointers -- or their abbreviations f \, s \,
+or p);
+#X obj 450 75 pack float symbol pointer;

+#X text 572 247 This list contains new values for each element.;
+#X text 19 127 In the example below \, the creation arguments are "100
+\, 0 \, a symbol \, 42". Hence \, when [pack] receives a bang \, it
+will send that information to its outlet as a list - or 'package' -
+which will be printed in your terminal window.;
+#X text 144 348 This doesn't work - the data types;
+#X text 143 362 don't correspond with the arguments.;
+#X text 17 33 The pack object takes a series of inputs and then outputs
+a concatenated list. The number of creation arguments determines the
+number of inlets while the type of creation arguments determines the
+types of messages that [pack] should expect to receive at each inlet
+- although with some peculiarities described below.;
+#X text 463 191 Any message to the first inlet will force [pack] to
+output its package - its list of values. A bang to the first inlet
+will force [pack] to output the current values without resetting any
+of them.;
+#X text 522 366 This number box will update each of the 'float' values

+#X text 21 240 Random numbers are generated via a complex equation
+which produces a pseudo-predictable sequence of numbers. Each [random]
+object's equation is provided with a "seed" which is really just one
+of the variables in the equation which produces the sequence. The "seed"
+is generated by PD based on specific parameters in each patch which
+contains a [random] object. If more than one [random] objects are contained
+within a single patch \, they each get a different "seed".;
+#X text 21 363 However \, "seeds" can be inputted into [random] by
+sending a message \, like below:;

+#X text 475 59 In a fantasy world \, computers could exist somehow
+beyond the restrictions of time and digital computation could be performed
+in ZERO time. However \, that is not the case. Instead \, every process
+within PD and within your operating system requires at least a few
+nanoseconds of your CPU's time.;

+#X text 476 144 The [timer] object is like a clock that is not constrained
+to the regular laws of physics and the universal space-time continuum.
+It reports "time" measurements as only PD can see them!;
+#X text 477 204 The [cputime] object is like a clock that measures
+how much time your CPU actually required to carry out your request.
+Keep in mind however that your CPU is busy doing many things simoultaneously
+\, so even though a process might take 5 minutes to complete \, your
+CPU does not pay full attention to that process for the entire 5 minutes.
+Instead \, it simply begins the process \, then refers back to that
+process from time to time until the it is complete. In other cases
+\, your CPU might require a full 5 minutes while PD might report that
+merely a few milliseconds have passed. This type of discrepancy depends
+heavily on your computer's hardware and the type of processing it is
+performing.;
+#X text 478 368 The [realtime] object is as much like your own wrist

+that they don't effect the performance of the other modules.;
+#X text 481 506 In these cases \, you should use "local variables"
+to name your send and receive objects. Local variables are assigned
+using dollar signs and numbers. There is more documentation about this

+have to test the incoming data for pitches with a velocity of zero.
+To do that \, we are packing up the incoming PITCH and VELOCITY data
+and sending them to [route]...in effect we achieve the following:;
+#X text 98 420 IF velocity = 0 THEN "bang";
+#X text 127 445 In the example above \, the [pack] object will output
+a list as soon as the VELOCITY information comes from [notein]. As
+a result \, the list will be outputted from pack BEFORE the PITCH information
+is retrieved. [swap] is used to solve this problem by making sure that

+#X text 21 8 WHAT IS INTERPOLATION?;
+#X text 38 34 "Interpolation" is a word which described a sophisticated
+way to "connect-the-dots". (This is over simplified \, but effective
+for the time being.);
+#X text 17 85 Let's say for example that we have an array whose values
+are: 0 \, 6 \, 5;
+#X text 36 120 There are 3 elements in this array \, right? Well \,
+using [tabread] we could successfully read only 3 numbers. But interpolation
+allows us to fill in the gaps between those values in a meaningful
+way. For example \, we can assume that between 0 and 6 \, we might
+find 4.5! We can also assume that the slope from 0 to 6 will be sharper
+than the slope from 6 to 5 In this way \, using [tabread4] will allow
+us to create much smoother lines and curves between our "dots".;
+#X text 35 254 However \, this process is much more complicated than
+mere "smoothing". 4-point interpolation incorporates a sophisticated
+formula to intelligently create meaningful increments between values
+in an array. For example: we could draw a few points on a baseball
+diamond between the pitcher's mound and home plate. Those points could
+represent the path a ball travels after a pitch. Using 4-point interpolation
+\, we might be able to assume the positions of the ball between our
+"known" points and determine whether the pitch was a fastball or a
+curve ball.;
+#X text 35 419 There are different formulas used to interpolate arrays.
+Each method has a sort of niche where it is most comfortable and most
+effective. PD \, like most contemporary audio software \, uses 4-point
+interpolation which is also known as "Hermite" interpolation. It is
+the most "intelligent" 2-dimensional method of interpolation.;

+;
+#X text 22 113 - etc.;
+#X text 19 137 [trigger] is one object in PD which can convert an incoming

+pointers. They can only be converted to "bang".;
+#X text 18 430 In the example above \, note that the trigger object
+does not split a list among the outlets like [unpack] does. Instead
+it sends all list elements through all outlets and converts them as
+necessary.;
+#X text 20 486 Also note that some messages don't convert as nicely
+as others. Hence \, the symbol "cat" converts to a ZERO when [trigger]
+converts that symbol into a float. Likewise \, all numbers will convert

+#X text 17 354 As a general rule \, all things are considered "local"
+in PD and if communication between PD windows is necessary \, then
+[send]/[receive] \, or [throw]/[catch] objects are used. Likewise \,
+if communication is necessary between many computers running PD \,
+then objects such as [netsend]/[netreceive] are used.;
+#X text 16 441 The exception to the above rule is [value]. This object
+is a container which makes its data known to all [value] objects of

+\, data and variables which exist within single or multiple patches
+on two or more computers which communicate with other active PD patches
+via a network.;
+#X text 419 15 To create a [value] object \, a name should be defined
+for the variable that it will contain. For example:;
+#X obj 422 54 value my_variable;
+#X text 419 110 To assign a numeric value to that variable \, a number

+#X text 59 6 MIDI basics.;
+#X text 11 54 MIDI in PD is handled through the 'raw' midi devices
+(such as /dev/midi*). One could specify which MIDI port PD is supposed
+to use through a command line switch when starting PD \, i.e.:;
+#X text 35 126 pd -midiindev 1 -midioutdev 2;
+#X text 43 287 pd -mididev 1;
+#X text 17 315 This will use the first port for both MIDI input and
+output.;
+#X text 17 397 There is also a little bit of confusion about OSS midi
+(which uses the raw midi - /dev/midi* - devices by default) and ALSA
+(which is becoming very popular). ALSA uses /dev/snd/midiC*D* as their
+raw midi devices. The C* (* = some number) is the device number while
+D* (* = some number) is the port number. Normally the ALSA driver links
+its raw devices to the corresponding /dev/midi* automatically (i.e.:
+/dev/snd/midiC0d0 -> /dev/midi00 \, /dev/snd/midiC0D1 -> /dev/midi01
+etc).;
+#X text 13 150 so \, the above will use the first MIDI device for MIDI
+input (it could be a MIDI controller such as a keyboard \, midi-guitar
+\, midi knob box etc) and the device #2 will be used for outputting
+the MIDI (re)generated or sent by PD.;
+#X text 13 232 For using the same device for MIDI input AND output
+(i.e. when one uses a MIDI keyboard which is also a synthesizer) the
+following command line switch will do:;
+#X text 19 521 MIDI objects in PD (the ones that read and write to
+MIDI ports) take a MIDI channel as an argument. Channels 1-16 use the
+first MIDI device \, 17-32 use the second MIDI device and so on. For
+this to work one must specify which devices PD is supposed to use:
+;
+#X text 39 599 -midiindev 1 \, 2 -- use devices 1 and 2 for input;
+#X text 39 615 -midioutdev 1 \, 2 -- use devices 1 and 2 for output
+;
+#X text 39 631 -mididev 1 \, 2 -- use devices 1 and 2 for input and
+output;
+#X text 17 343 NOTE (Linux): PD counts the MIDI devices starting from
+1 Usually \, the operating system counts them starting with 0 (zero)
+so if you want to use /dev/midi00 \, PD has to be started with -mididev
+1 Always add 1 to the device number.;
+#X text 21 651 NOTE (Windows): -listdev command line option lists all
+available MIDI and audio devices.;
+#X text 19 678 A couple more useful command line options (related to
+MIDI):;
+#X text 21 694 -nomidiin -- do not listen to any midi input;
+#X text 21 706 -nomidiout -- do not send any midi output;
+#X text 21 718 -nomidi -- do not use any MIDI;

+\, simply gather together information about objects \, tutorials \,
+examples \, etc. and contact Dave Sabine for info about formatting
+your documents. All documents should then be forwarded to Dave to be
+included in the PDDP download which is available at his web site.;
+#X text 25 396 Externals and other Libraries: Each PDDP document includes
+mention of "related objects from other PD libraries" as well as mention
+of "related native PD objects". The objects from other libraries are
+available only if you download those libraries from their respective
+authors and integrate them properly into your version of PD. We do
+not and cannot maintain a complete list of externals - but we try.
+For more info about externals and other objects \, see http://www.pure-data.org/
