Description

Performs power-of operations between a vector and a scalar

Syntax

vexp_i  ifn, ival, ielements[, idstoffset]

Initialization

ifn - number of the table hosting the vectorial signal to be processed

ival - scalar operand to be processed

ielements - number of elements of the vector

ival - scalar value to be added

idstoffset - index offset for the destination table

Performance

vexp_i rises ival to each element contained in a vector from table ifn, starting from table index idstoffset. This enables you to process a specific section of a table by specifying the offset and the number of elements to be processed. Offset is counted starting from 0, so if no offset is specified (or set to 0), the table will be modified from the beginning.

Negative values for idstoffset are valid. Elements from the vector that are outside the table, will be discarded, and they will not wrap around the table.

This opcode runs only on initialization, there is a k-rate version of this opcode called vexp.

In all these opcodes, the resulting vectors are stored in ifn, overriding the initial vectors. If you want to keep initial vector, use vcopy or vcopy_i to copy it in another table. All these operators are designed to be used together with other opcodes that operate with vectorial signals such as vcella, adsynt, adsynt2, etc. They can also be useful in conjunction with the spectral opcodes pvsftw and pvsftr.

Examples

Here is an example of the vexp_i opcode. It uses the file vexp_i.csd.
