x = 5  -- integer
x = 5 #float  -- 5.0
x = 5 @in #rate.hz  -- 5 hertz

string = "important words"  -- string literal
string2 = string #float  -- error; string is character
string2 = '3.3'  -- single brackets also fine
string2 = string @in #float -- yes
!string #float  -- same as above; also inplace; like @as #float
!string #float  -- same as above
string#float  -- returns what the above would be without changing the value of string

!srate = 48000 @in #rate.hz  -- @in changes in place a literal or variable
!srate = 48000  -- ! before var in assignment is constant
!srate @system.srate = 48000  -- binded global srate to variable
!@system.srate = 48000  -- same thing

    so now i have enough to think i might be able to do this

-- example of sine oscillator --

:snd.oscil sine(freq #rate.hz) #proc.generator {
    freq * block.. * ~2PI / :system.srate :> @buf.out @in #float  -- make a sine wave
    !buf.out = freq * block.. * ~2PI / :system.srate  -- same as above
    !buf.out #float  -- make sure its a float

    ~print(@proc.audio_out @like #fmt.raw)  -- print out raw audio samples

    --+

    frequency * the linspace of block * two pi high speed constant / the system's sampling rate

    :> means write to
    @proc.audio_out is the audio output stream for a @proc function
