function graph editing

8.4: adde/function graph editing:

. how is audio graphing done?
how is the gui separated from the command processor?

. each unit of mouse movement
practically represents a pixel unit
which then represents a range of data points;
the first of those points can be chosen;
or if there is a sharp spike
then find the high and low
to include every point inclusive;
ie, graph a vertical line instead of a point .

. audio graphing is like strings of words,
but instead of the words differing in length,
they are all on their side for differing height .
. range selections result in a pair of numbers:
the {begin, end} of range,
which are then sent to the processor .
. if the range was possibly modified,
the editor then has to regraph that range .
8.28:
. the editor can handle this without knowing
the particulars of the audio graphing,
because it will have an interface for
generic function editing;
or rather,
the editor and every command processor
will all speak the system language:
the system's language describes
a mathematical function
as either a set of points or a formula
along with a type specification that includes
a domain and codomain;
with an optional subdomain and inverse operator .
