An audio frequency generator produces a continual audible monotone at a set frequency and level of volume. There are controls to adjust the frequency and the volume up and down as desired. Some also have a selector to switch the waveform type between sine wave, square wave and triangular sawtooth.
The task is to emulate an audio frequency generator. It is permissible to use an inbuilt computer speaker if the system does not have the facility to utilize dedicated sound hardware.
The solution should include:
- A demonstration of how to check for availability of sound hardware on the system (on systems where this is possible)
- A demonstration of how to produce a continual audible monotone (on sound hardware this would typically be a sine wave)
- A method of adjusting the frequency and volume of the monotone. (one way would be to use left and right arrow keys to increase or decrease frequency, and up and down keys to increase or decrease the volume)
- A method to silence or reset the sound hardware on exit.
Optionally the solution can also include:
- A demonstration of how to fall back to internal speaker, if sound hardware is not available
- A facility to switch between sine wave, square wave and triangular sawtooth
Languages that provide no facilities for utilizing sound hardware of any kind should be omitted.

As Go does not have any audio support in its standard library, this invokes the SoX utility's 'play' command with the appropriate parameters to emulate an audio frequency generator. It appears that SoX automatically uses the internal speaker if there is no sound hardware available.
The duration of the monotone is set in advance (to a small number of seconds) and the application ends when it finishes playing. Consequently, a method to silence it is not required.

- Provides on/off switch, frequency and volume control and five different wave shapes to select from.
- Frequency may be typed in or changed by dragging. Predefined pitches and a frequency ramp (18 - 24000 Hz) are accessible by clicking the respective labels.
- Volume level and wave shape are graphically displayed.
- More shapes, even free wave shape modelling could easily be added.

SuperCollider
SuperCollider is a sound programming language, so the task is predictably easy.
// the server application detects audio hardware.
Server.default.boot;
// play a sine monotone at 440 Hz and amplitude 0.2
{ SinOsc.ar(440) * 0.2 }.play;
// use the cursor position to adjust frequency and amplitude (ranges are exponential)
{ SinOsc.ar(MouseX.kr(40, 20000, 1)) * MouseY.kr(0.001, 0.5, 1) }.play;
// use the cursor position to switch between sine wave, square wave and triangular sawtooth
// the rounding and lag smoothes the transition between them
{ SelectX.ar(MouseX.kr(0, 2).round.lag, [ SinOsc.ar, Pulse.ar, LFTri.ar ]) * 0.1 }.play;
// the same expressed as an array of functions of a common phase
(
{
var phase = LFSaw.ar;
var functions = [
{ |x| sin(x * pi) },
{ |x| x > 0 },
{ |x| abs(x) },
];
var which = MouseX.kr(0, 2);

Wren
The ability to call external processes such as SoX is expected to be added to Wren-cli in the next release. In the meantime, we embed the following Wren script in a C host to complete this task.
/* Audio_frequency_generator.wren */
class C {
foreign static getInput(maxSize)
foreign static play(args)
}
var freq = 0
while (!freq || !freq.isInteger || freq < 40 || freq > 10000) {
System.write("Enter frequency in HZ (40 to 10000) : ")
freq = Num.fromString(C.getInput(5))
}
var freqS = freq.toString
var vol = 0
while (!vol || vol < 1 || vol > 50) {
System.write("Enter volume in dB (1 to 50) : ")
vol = Num.fromString(C.getInput(2))
}
var volS = vol.toString
var dur = 0
while (!dur || dur < 2 || dur > 10) {
System.write("Enter duration in seconds (2 to 10) : ")
dur = Num.fromString(C.getInput(2))
}
var durS = dur.toString
var kind = 0
while (!kind || !kind.isInteger || kind < 1 || kind > 3) {
System.write("Enter kind (1 = Sine, 2 = Square, 3 = Sawtooth) : ")
kind = Num.fromString(C.getInput(1))
}
var kindS = "sine"
if (kind == 2) {
kindS = "square"
} else if (kind == 3) {
kindS = "sawtooth"
}
var args = ["-n", "-V1", "synth", durS, kindS, freqS, "vol", volS, "dB"].join(" ")
C.play(args)

ZX Spectrum Basic
The ZX Spectrum is not very good at making sound. Most applications in BASIC would just produce annoying beeps, and the following is no exception. To emulate the signal generator, we just produce repetative beeps using the inbuilt speaker. The left and right keys (5 and 8) change the tone. There is no volume control on the Spectrum.
