functions for audio

[Aaron Brick]

hello all,

i'm trying to use octave to create sound samples of interesting functions.
it works to some extent, but i seem to be missing, conceptually, one aspect
of their composition.

if i execute the following:

        saveaudio ("file",sin (0:1:1000), "au", 16)

i get a sound, as expected, but i don't have control over the relationship
between its frequency and length. changing the value 1000 affects its
length, and changing the 1 affects its tone _and_ length. how can i have
direct control over these factors?

for the sake of this discussion, i would like to create a 1 second long
sample of a 100 hz sine tone, and a 2 second sample of a 1000 hz sine tone.
can anyone write the function that yields those sounds?

thanks very much,

aaron brick.
