Function Table Control
Prev | Part II. Opcodes Overview | Next

## Function Table Control

Refer to the f score statement, ftgen, ftgentmp, ftgenonce and the GEN Routines section for information on creating tables.

Tables can be removed from memory using the ftfree opcode.

Tables by default, require a size which is a power of two. However tables with any size can be generated by specifying the size as a negative number (see f score statement).

| Note
Not all opcodes accept tables whose size is not a power of two, as this may be a requirement for internal processing.

For information on table access, consult the section Table Access.

Tables for use with the loscilx opcode can be loaded using sndload.

## Table Queries

Opcodes the query tables for information are:

- For tables loaded from a sound file (using GEN01): ftchnls, ftcps,ftlen, ftlptim and ftsr

- For any table: nsamp, ftlen, tableng

The opcode tabsum calculates the sum of values in a table.
