I would like to be able to specify a duty cycle and frequency to impose on an 
array. Also I would like it to truly appear to be square from an 
interpolation perspective 
i.e. plotting and intersection interpolation do not assume the wave to be a 
smooth transition from 1 to zero, but a sharp nonlinearity (or at least 
approximately one)
