## vmult_i

vmult_i — Multiplies a vector in a table by a scalar value.

## Description

Multiplies a vector in a table by a scalar value.

## Syntax

    vmult_i  ifn, ival, ielements [, idstoffset]

## Initialization

ifn - number of the table hosting the vectorial signal to be processed

ival - scalar value to be multiplied

ielements - number of elements of the vector

idstoffset - index offset for the destination table

## Performance

vmult_i multiplies each element of the vector contained in the table ifn by ival, starting from table index idstoffset. This enables you to process a specific section of a table by specifying the offset and the number of elements to be processed. Offset is counted starting from 0, so if no offset is specified (or set to 0), the table will be modified from the beginning.

This opcode runs only on initialization, there is a k-rate version of this opcode called vmult.

Negative values for idstoffset are valid. Elements from the vector that are outside the table, will be discarded, and they will not wrap around the table.

In all these opcodes, the resulting vectors are stored in ifn, overriding the intial vectors. If you want to keep initial vector, use vcopy or vcopy_i to copy it in another table. All these operators are designed to be used together with other opcodes that operate with vectorial signals such as bmscan, vcella, adsynt, adsynt2, etc. They can also be useful in conjunction with the spectral opcodes pvsftw and pvsftr.
