class:: Index
summary:: Index into a table with a signal
related:: Classes/WrapIndex, Classes/Shaper
categories::  UGens>Buffer

Description::
Index into a table with a signal.
The input signal value is truncated to an integer value and used as an
index into the table. Out-of-range index values are clipped to the valid
range.

classmethods::

method::ar, kr

argument::bufnum
Index of the buffer.

argument::in
The input signal.

argument::mul
Output will be multiplied by this value.

argument::add
This value will be added to the output.


Examples::
code::
// indexing into a fixed table
(
{
	SinOsc.ar(
			Index.kr(
				LocalBuf.newFrom([ 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 800 ]),
				LFSaw.kr(2.0).range(0, 7)
			),
			0,
			0.5
		)
}.play;
)

// with mouse control
(
{
	SinOsc.ar(
			Index.kr(
				LocalBuf.newFrom([ 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 800 ]),
				MouseX.kr(0, 7)
			),
			0,
			0.5
		)
}.play;
)

(
// indexing into a changeable table
s = Server.local;
t = [ 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 800 ];
b = Buffer(s, t.size, 1);

// alloc and set the values
s.listSendMsg( b.allocMsg( b.setnMsg(0, t) ).postln );

SynthDef(\help_Index, { arg out = 0, i_bufnum = 0;

			),

		)
	)
}).play(s, [\i_bufnum, b]);
