f #     time    size    20      window  max     opt


DESCRIPTION

This subroutine generates functions of different windows. These windows are usually used for spectrum analysis or for grain envelopes.

INITIALIZATION

size - number of points in the table. Must be a power of 2 ( + 1). window - Type of window to generate.

                1 - Hamming
                2 - Hanning
                3 - Bartlett ( triangle)
                4 - Blackman ( 3 - term)
                5 - Blackman - Harris ( 4 - term)
                6 - Gaussian
                7 - Kaiser
                8 - Rectangle
                9 - Sinc

max - For negative p4 this will be the absolute value at window peak point. If p4 is positive or p4 is negative and p6 is missing the table will be post-rescaled to a maximum value of 1. opt - Optional argument required by the Kaiser window.

EXAMPLES:

        f       1       0       1024    20      5

This creates a function which contains a 4 - term Blackman - Harris window with maximum value of 1.

        f       1       0       1024    -20     2       456

This creates a function that contains a Hanning window with a maximum value of 456.

        f       1       0       1024    -20     1

This creates a function that contains a Hamming window with a maximum value of 1.

        f       1       0       1024    20      7       1       2

This creates a function that contains a Kaiser window with a maximum value of 1. The extra argument specifies how `open' the window is, for example a value of 0 results in a rectangular window and a value of 10 in a Hamming like window.
