1.4.2.0 (January 2023)
---
(NOTE) chuck-1.4.2.0 marks a beginning (in BETA) of ChAI => ChucK for AI 
-- a set of functionalities for interactive machine learning and artful, 
humanistic design of music and artificial intelligence; it coincides with 
the new "Music and AI" course at Stanford University, designed and taught 
by Ge Wang with Ph.D. candidate Yikai Li. *** ChAI (Beta) additions are 
listed at the end ***
---
  - (added) MFCC unit analyzer (thanks Yikai Li)
        |- A unit analyzer that computes Mel-frequency Cepstral Coefficients
           (MFCCs), and outputs a vector of coefficients.
        |- (inheritance) MFCC -> UAna -> UGen -> Object
  - (added) examples: analysis/features/mfcc.ck
  - (added) all associative arrays now have a new method [thanks nshaheed]
        void getKeys( string[] keys );
        Return all keys found in associative array in keys
  - (added) Machine.realtime(): "return true if the shred is in realtime 
        mode, false if it's in silent mode (i.e. --silent is enabled)"
        -- thanks nshaheed --
  - (added) Machine.silent(): "return false if the shred is in realtime 
        mode, true if it's in silent mode (i.e. --silent is enabled)"
        -- thanks nshaheed --
  - (fixed) .help() now more accurately prints ("unit analyzer")
    for UAna types
  - (fixed) multi-variable array declaration; the following should
    now work:
        int x[1], y[2];
        int x, y[3];
  - (fixed) resolved an issue with multi-dimensional arrays pre-maturely
    releasing internal type data structure -- e.g., causing an assertion 
    failure in the second function call
        fun void test()
        {
            [ [1,2,3], [1,2,3] ] @=> int arr[][];
        }
        test();
        test();
  - (fixed) internal array storage now (more) correctly differentiate
    between int and float, on systems where the two are the same size
    (e.g., both 32-bit or both 64-bit)
  - (fixed) command line chuck: when opening default input audio device
        (e.g., Microphone), check for mono devices (the case on some MacOS
        systems) now happens earlier, before searching other 2-channel input
        audio devices; this preempts chuck using virtual audio input devices
        such as ZoomAudioDevice as the input device
  - (dev) added test examples in 01-Basic related to multi-var array
    declarations
  - (dev) extraneous white spaces removed throughout src/core
    ** thank you nshaheed for this soul-restoring measure **
  - (dev) all tabs replaced with 4 spaces, now consistent across project
    ** thank you nshaheed for this soul-restoring measure **
  - (dev) nshaheed: linux makefiles now correctly inserts Debug (-g)
    build flag when Debug build is enabled (default builds for Release)
-----------------------
(BETA) ChAI-related additions: please note this is in Beta, meaning that 
APIs may change in the near future; many additions are in the works
-----------------------
  - (added) SVM object (thanks Yikai Li)
        |- a support vector machine (SVM) utility trains a model and 
           predicts output based on new input
        |- (inheritance) SVM -> Object
        |- methods:
           int predict( float[] x, float[] y );
               Predict the output 'y' given the input 'x'.
           int train( float[][] x, float[][] y );
               Train the SVM model with the given samples 'x' and 'y'.
  - (added) KNN object (thanks Yikai Li)
        |- A k-nearest neighbor (KNN) utility that predicts the output of 
           a given input based on the training data
        |- (inheritance) KNN -> Object
        |- methods:
           int predict( int k, float[] x, float[] prob );
               Predict the output probabilities (in 'prob') given new input
               'x' based on 'k' nearing neighbors.
           int train( float[][] x, int[] y );
               Train the KNN model with the given samples 'x' and 
           corresponding labels 'y'.
  - (added) HMM object (thanks Yikai Li)
        |- A hidden markov model (HMM) utility that generates a sequence 
           of observations based on the training data
        |- (inheritance) SVM -> Object
        |- methods:
           int load( float[] initiailDistribution,
                     float[][] transitionMatrix, 
                     float[][] emissionMatrix );
               Initialize the HMM model with the given initial state 
               distribution, transition matrix, and emission matrix.
           int train( int numStates, int numEmissions,
               int[] observations );
           Train the HMM model with the given observations.
           int generate( int length, int[] output );
               Generate a sequence of observations of the given length.
  - (added) basic usage examples in examples/ai/ folder
        |- also can use the built-in help() function
           KNN.help(); // this will print KNN type info and API
           SVM.help(); // this will print SVM type info and API
           HMM.help(); // this will print HMM type info and API
-----------------------
(BETA) end CHAI additions
-----------------------
    

1.4.1.1 (May 2022)
---
  - (added) native support for Apple Silicon (e.g., M1) as intel/apple 
    universal binary; *significant* performance throughput observed
    running chuck natively on Apple Silicon
  - (modified) building from source, on MacOS command line:
        > make mac (compile for current architecture: arm64/x86_64)
        > make mac-ub (compile universal binary: arm64+x86_64)
        > lipo -archs ./chuck (checks architectures)
        > ./chuck --about (prints out compiled platform...
          ...and if compiled as universal binary):
          ---
          chuck version: 1.4.1.1 (numchucks)
          macOS : 64-bit [universal binary]
          ---
        > make osx (deprecated; use 'make mac' or 'make mac-ub')
  - (updated, pre-built executables, MacOS) both command line chuck and
    miniAudicle are now built as universal binaries to support both
    intel(x86_64) and Apple silicion/M1(arm64) architectures
  - (updated, pre-built executables, MacOS) all packaged chugins are
    now also built as universal binaries
  - (added) Math.equal( float x, float y )
    returns whether two floats are considered equivalent
  - (added) array.popOut( int index )
    removes an array element by index [thanks chamington and nshaheed]
  - (added) OscOut.send() error reporting now includes the intended
    recipient (hostname:port)
  - (added) examples/hid/gametra.ck
    boilerplate gametrak code
  - (moved) examples/osc/1-send-recv/
    moved s.ck and r.ck (sender and receiver) examples here
  - (added) examples/osc/2-multi-msg/
    examples for interleaving two OSC message types at different rates

  - (fixed) CK_STDCERR now flushes on all output
  - (fixed) error message display for MidiFileIn (STK)
  - (fixed) array literal assignment now works as expected when
    common ancestor type is child type of the RHS type; [thanks nshaheed]
    --- for example ---
    [ new SinOsc ] @=> Osc arr[]; // previously this results in a
                                  // incompatible type error, although
                                  // Osc is a superclass SinOsc
    -------------------
  - (continuous integration) --  updated to use 'make mac'
  - (test) -- modified 01-Basic/86.ck; disabled 87.ck due to 
    Math.isnan() behaving differently on Apple Silicon;
    modified 03-Modules/std01.ck to handled floating point equivalence
    differently; also prompted adding Math.equal(); modified
    05-Global/86.ck to disable Math.isnan()
  - (updated, internal) integer types update for smoother Windows 64 bit
  - (noted) synchronization point for Chunity version x.x.x
  - (added) added to VERSIONS (this file) release dates since initial
    release in 2004


1.4.1.0 (June 2021)
---
(NOTE) chuck-1.4.1.0 is the first significant release resulting from a 
coordinated team effort to update and improve ChucK for teaching and 
research.  In April 2021, Perry and Ge led a ChucK "Global 
Repair-a-thon", which identified issues and put forth a new Development 
Roadmap. The ChucK dev team will follow this roadmap for updates, new 
features, and new ChucK mediums (e.g., Chunity, WebChucK, FaucK, 
ChucKTrip, and more). Many people were involved in this significant 
release, including Jack Atherton, Mike Mulshine, Matt Wright, Rebecca 
Fiebrink, Dan Trueman, Lloyd May, Mark Cerqueira, Mario Buoninfante, 
Perry Cook, Spencer Salazar, and Ge Wang.  Many thanks to everyone who 
contributed. Happy ChucKing!
---
  - (added) static Object.help();
    All ChucK objects (i.e., all non-primitive types) can now invoke 
    .help(), which will dynamically generate and print to console
    the description and inheritance hierarchy of the underlying type,
    as well as the available functions at runtime.  This can be called
    on any object instance or on any class (without an instance):
        // any object instance
        SinOsc foo;
        // print to console info about its underlying type
        foo.help();
        (OR)
        // call help() from any class (identical output as above)
        SinOsc.help();
    Intended to be a quick runtime reference / learning tool!
  - (added) examples/help.ck -- show .help() in action
  - (added) examples/deep/chant.ck (by Perry Cook, 2006) -- a chant singing
    synthesizer that makes use of ChucK's strongly-time and concurrent
    programming features.
  - (added) new Multi-channel LiSa UGens! (LiSa10 was already present)
        LiSa2 (stereo)
        LiSa4 (quad),
        LiSa6 (6-channel; laptop orchestra edition!)
        LiSa8 (8-channel),
        LiSa16 (16-channel)
  - (fixed) LiSa playback bug; voice panning now handles the mono case;
    previously was silencing voice playback
  - (added) new STK set/get access functions in FM:
        float op4Feedback( float value );
            Set operator 4 feedback.
        float op4Feedback();
            Get operator 4 feedback.
        float opADSR( int opNum, float a, float d, float s, float r );
            Set operator ADSR: attack, decay, sustain, release.
        float opAM( int opNum, float value );
            Set operator amplitude modulation.
        float opAM( int opNum );
            Get operator amplitude modulation.
        float opGain( int opNum, float value );
            Set operator gain.
        float opGain( int opNum );
            Get gperator gain.
        float opRatio( int opNum, float ratio );
            Set operator frequency ratio.
        float opRatio( int opNum );
            Get operator frequency ratio.
        float opWave( int opNum, int wave );
            Set operator waveform [1-8].
  - (added) new Synthesis Toolkit (STK) FM instruments from Perry!
        HnkyTonk: STK-style Honkey Tonk Piano FM synthesis instrument.
            (aka, Algorithm 1 of the Yamaha TX81Z DX11 FM synthesizer)
        FrencHrn: STK-style French Horn FM synthesis instrument.
            (aka, Algorithm 2 of the Yamaha TX81Z DX11 FM synthesizer)
        KrstlChr: STK-style "Crystal Choir" FM synthesis instrument.
            (aka, Algorithm 7 of the Yamaha TX81Z DX11 FM synthesizer)
    *** for each of these, try using the new .help() to examine its
    documentation and interface; e.g., HnkyTonk.help(); ***
  - (added) new Moog function:
        float filterStartFreq( float freq );
            Set filter starting frequency.
        float filterStartFreq();
            Get filter starting frequency.
  - (added) new STK examples:
        examples/stk/frenchrn-algo2.ck -- FM French Horn demo
        examples/stk/honkeytonk-algo1.ck -- fun with FM Honkey Tonk
        examples/stk/krstlchr-algo7.ck -- heavenly FM Kristal Choir
        examples/stk/hevymetl-acoustic-algo3.ck -- FM HevyMetl => Nylon Guitar
        examples/stk/hevymetl-trumpet-algo3.ck -- FM HevyMetl => Trumpet
        examples/stk/rhodey-song.ck -- a lovely little number
  - (updated) tweaks to a number of STK UGens, which may result in audio
    changes; the affected UGens are:
        BandedWG, BeeThree, FMVoices, HevyMetl, PercFlut, Rhodey,
        TubeBell, Wurley
  - (fixed) issue in PluckTwo in computing delay length; this affects
    the tuning of various plucked string models, including Mandolin.
  - (added) .frames() for SndBuf and SndBuf2; returns the number of sample
    frames in the loaded sound file. This is identical in behavior to
    .samples() -- but for stereo+, .frames() is semanitically more 
    accurate than .samples().
  - (added) "global" declarations for int, float, string, Object, UGen, Event;
    this can be used in-language across ChucK files (each file must first 
    "declare" the global value before using it). This also support usage from
    external hosts such as Chunity. (thanks to Jack Atherton for this work!)
  - (added) constant power panning (as controlled by the .pan parameter)
    for all UGen_Stereo--including Pan2, stereo dac, stereo adc; this is
    controllable using the new .panType parameter.  By default, constant
    power panning is NOT enabled for dac and adc, whose panning behavior 
    is unchanged (panType==0) and favors a kind of unity-gain-preserving
    but perceptually suspect panning scheme. By contrast, Pan2 will default
    to use constant power panning (panType==1).  This change will alter the
    effect of any existing code that uses Pan2.  Specifically, it will
    introduce a ~3 dB reduction in the output Pan2 (it is possible to
    restore the previous behavior by explicitly setting .panType to 0). 
    This ~3 dB reduction corresponds to the equal-powered amplitude value
    when pan is at center (pan=0). Mathematically, the reduction amount 
    can be calculated using Std.lintodb(Math.cos(pi/4))
    [To hear this new behavior, check out examples/stereo/stereo_noise.ck]
  - (BEHAVIOR CHANGED) clearly separated array.size() and array.capacity();
    for historical/compatibility reasons, array.cap() is the same as
    array.size() and generally should be avoided in favor of either .size()
    or .capacity()
  - (BEHAVIOR CHANGED): internally, all ChucK static functions are now
    passed an extra parameter (Chuck_Type * TYPE) as a pointer to the
    base type/class. This will affect Chugins, which should be updated/
    rebuilt with the latest headers.
  - (BEHAVIOR CHANGED): when connecting two multi-channel UGen's (both
    are at least stereo), say LHS => RHS, if LHS channels < RHS channels,
    the channels will be connected one-by-one up to the LHS channel count;
    previously, the LHS channels will be automatically repeated to connect
    to the RHS channels that have no corresponding LHS channels.  This
    behavior can still be achieved by manually connecting the individual
    channels of LHS and and RHS through LHS.chan(n) and RHS.chan(n).
  - (fixed) resolved a bug with SndBuf not playing when .rate < 0 and while
    .pos beyond the end
  - (fixed) resolved a bug with SndBuf where it could output DC when .rate < 0
    after it reaches the beginning of the file (e.g., if the first sample is
    non-zero)
  - (fixed) resolved a bug in ADSR when sustain is set to 0 and audio stops,
    .releaseTime return NaN and basically the world ends (thanks to
    mariobuoninfante for help in addressing this)
  - (fixed) reset Gen10 table to allow add/remove partials; thanks to 
    mariobuoninfant
  - (fixed) updated MidiOut and removed check in order to allow messages
    of size less than or greater than 3 bytes; thanks to mariobuoninfante
    for this issue report on Ubuntu Studio 64-bit; this fix addresses
    the sending of MIDI clock, stop, continue, and SysEx -- also thank 
    you mariobuoninfante for the fix.
  - (fixed) ChucK shell can now be exited either by the "exit" command
    or through ctrl-c.  Previously. ctrl-c sometimes failed to end the
    the program due to logic in the global cleanup function; this has
    been addressed.
  - (fixed) addressed an issue where Chugins were being loaded twice.
  - (fixed) the --chugin-load:off option is now correclty taken into
    account and will appropriately result in no Chugins being loaded.
  - (deprecated) Chubgraph => (new) Chugraph;
    Chubgraph will continue to function, with a deprecation warning.
  - (documentation) updated embedded documentation text for all statically
    linked UGens and libraries.
  - (documentation) brought examples in alignment between distribution
    and the online examples collection; many examples updated for clarity
    and utility
        http://chuck.stanford.edu/doc/examples
        http://chuck.cs.princeton.edu/doc/examples
  - (internal/refactor) the "Mega Merge 2021" integrates a long-standing
    branch since REFACTOR-2017 that includes support for globals and was
    the basis for Chunity.  Future Chunity releases will align with mainline
    ChucK language features. (thanks to Jack Atherton for several years of
    laying the groundwork and for ChucK in Chunity!)
  - (internal/developement) added m_started flag to the ChucK class to avoid
    a strange (but mostly harmless) condition when the virtual machine is
    shutting down and ChucK::run() attempt to call ChucK::start()
  - (internal/development) Thanks to Mark Cerqueira -- migrated from old
    Travis CI (continuous integration testing) to GHA (GitHub Actions).


1.4.0.1 (May 2020)
---
  - (fixed) when opening audio input devices where the default
    device has insufficient chanels (e.g., MacOS input is mono
    by default), logic has been added to also match sample rates
    when searching for alternate audio input devices;  additional
    logic added in the specific case of mono input devices to
    simulate stereo, to fulfill the standard request for stereo
    input.
  - (fixed) added check to prevent crash in rare situations involving
    self-join when deleting XThread in background. (git PR #103)
  - (fixed) by stuntgoat@github -- right-recursion in chuck parser
    can exhaust memory in larger chuck files; this has been updated
    to use left recursion.  (git PR #32, (finally) merged by hand by 
    Spencer and Ge)  Also thanks to Tom Lieber for the initial analysis
    and solution:
    https://lists.cs.princeton.edu/pipermail/chuck-users/2009-April/004029.html
  - (added) by Nathan Tindall -- Q and freq bounding for filters (LPF,
    HPF, BPF, BRF) to avoid LOUD FILTER EXPLOSIONS; now negative values
    will throw an exception on the offending shred.
  - (restored, macOS) MAUI Chugin now (re)supported, post 1.4.0.0
  - (added; developer) ChucK.h API to set a main thread hook (e.g., for 
    graphical functionalitie from Chugins)
  - (updated, developer) Chugin API now support main thread callback
    for graphical-/GUI purposes
  - (developer) refactored code to move I/O-related code out of
    chuck_lang and into chuck_io.

1.3.1.2 (September 2012)
---
  - (added) chuck now automatically detects and uses next highest
            or closest (in that order) system sample rate in   
            the case where the default is not available; if a sample
            rate requested via --srate: is not available, an error
            will be encountered with a message.
  - (fixed) base parent object is correctly accounted for by 
            new shred when sporking member functions
            (thanks to Michael Heuer for reporting and

            on 32-bit systems only.  (thanks to Simon Steptoe 
            reporting and narrowing this down)
  - (fixed) opening real-time audio with 0 input channels should
            now work, once again.


1.3.1.1 (September 2012)
---
  - (fixed) critical bug since 1.3 where member function calls in
            loop conditionals caused crashes when the loop body
            contained local Object's to be released;  this directly
            affects using OSC, MIDI, HID, which commonly employ 
            syntax like: 'while( e.nextMesg() ) { ... }';
            -- this is most likely the cause of the OSC-related issues
            we've been seeing (thanks to Graham Coleman for tracking 
            down and narrowingthe issue!)
  - (fixed) strengthened synchronization in OSC between internal
            listener thread and chuck VM code
  - (fixed) memory bug in OscRecv deallocation
  - (fixed) Machine.add( ... ) on windows now supports both '\\'
            and '/' in aboslute paths (previously only '\\').

            the existing Std.rand*() and Std.srand() is still
            be available for compatibility (these to be deprecated
            in the future; please start using Math.random*())
            * (NOTE: on windows, Math.random() still uses the same
              generator as Std.rand() -- we hope to improve this in
              a future version!)
            * (NOTE: also see removed below)
  - (added) chuck --version | chuck --about now print architecture
            (32-bit or 64-bit)

  - (added) examples/array/array_mmixed.ck to verify mixed-index
            fix (see below), based on Robin Haberkorn's test code
  - (fixed) multi-dimensional arrays now correctly support mix-typed
            indices (e.g., strings & ints) (thanks Robin Haberkorn)
  - (fixed) constants in Math library now cleaner, they include:
            * Math.PI
            * Math.TWO_PI
            * Math.e or Math.E
            * Math.i or Math.I or Math.j or Math.J // as 'complex' type
            * Math.INFINITY
            * Math.RANDOM_MAX
            * Math.INT_MAX // currently, differs on 32-bit and 64-bit systems
            * Math.FLOAT_MAX
            * Math.FLOAT_MIN_MAG // minimum positive float value
  - (fixed) Chubgraph.gain(), .last(), and .op()
  - (fixed) error message printing system for variable arguments
  - (fixed) StifKarp.sustain now works properly
  - (fixed) all examples now use Math.random*() instead of Std.rand*()
  - (removed) Math.rand*() removed --> please use Math.random*();
            (see 'added' above; Std.rand*() still there, but to be 
            deprecated; please use Math.random*() moving forward)

            fun void foo( General obj ) { }
            fun void foo( Specific obj ) { }
            foo( obj $ Specific ); // should call foo( Specific )

            Michael Heuer, and Andrew C. Smith for follow-up)
  - (fixed) STK instruments control changes reports range issues as

  - (fixed) it's now (again) possible to multiply connect
            two UGen's
  - (fixed) OS X only: sudden-motion-sensor HID no longer

            a factor of 2, or roughly 6 dB!!  BEWARE!!
  - (fixed) corrected order of shred/ugen dealloc in VM destructor,
            preventing a potential crash during shutdown
  - (fixed) UAna can now upchuck() at now==0
  - (fixed) STK Chorus UGen now has reasonable defaults
            .max( dur, float ) for initializing to delay/depth limits

  - (fixed) dur +=> now no longer crashes
  - (fixed) ADSR now returns attackTime, decayTime, and releaseTime that corresponds

1.2.0.3 (October 2005)
---
  (API changes again)
  (syntax change - 'loop' -> 'repeat')
  - loop( ... ) construct (see 1.2.0.2) changed to repeat( ... )
    - usage and semantics same as before
    - this is also an experimental language feature
      (let us know if it's good or bad)

  - (added) 'loop(...){ }' control structure : 
      example: loop( 8 ) { ... } // executes body 8 times
      example: loop( foo ) { ... } // executes body foo times
      (foo is evaluated exactly once entering the loop, the
      value at that time is used as a constant to control
      loop iteration - even if foo is changed in the loop
      body.)
      - supports break and continue
      - important: one fundamantal difference between the loop

      terminal 1%> chuck --loop
      terminal 2%> chuck + otf_01.ck
      (wait)
      terminal 2%> chuck + otf_02.ck
