int(x) (init-rate or control-rate; also works at audio rate in Csound5)
where the argument within the parentheses may be an expression. Value converters perform arithmetic translation from units of one kind to units of another. The result can then be a term in a further expression.
Here is an example of the int opcode. It uses the files int.orc and int.sco.
Example 191. Example of the int opcode.
/* int.orc */ ; Initialize the global variables. sr = 44100 kr = 4410 ksmps = 10 nchnls = 1 ; Instrument #1. instr 1 i1 = 16 / 5 i2 = int(i1) print i2 endin /* int.orc */
/* int.sco */ ; Play Instrument #1 for one second. i 1 0 1 e /* int.sco */
Its output should include a line like this:
instr 1: i2 = 3.000
