22 :faustapply "The value of a Faust program is the result of applying the signal transformer denoted by the expression to which the \texttt{process} identifier is bound to input signals, running at the $f_S$ sampling frequency."

24 :faustpresentation "Faust (\emph{Functional Audio Stream}) is a functional programming language designed for synchronous real-time signal processing and synthesis applications. A Faust program is a set of bindings of identifiers to expressions that denote signal transformers. A signal $s$ in $S$ is a function mapping\footnote{Faust assumes that $\forall \, s \in S, \forall \, t \in \mathbb{Z}, s(t) = 0 \mathrm{\ when\ } t < 0$.} times $t \in \mathbb{Z}$ to values $s(t) \in \mathbb{R}$, while a signal transformer is a function from $S^n$ to $S^m$, where $n,m\in \mathbb{N}$. See the Faust manual for additional information (\textsf{http://faust.grame.fr})."

28 :blockdiagrams "A block diagram is a graphical representation of the Faust binding of an identifier I to an expression E; each graph is put in a box labeled by I. Subexpressions of E are recursively displayed as long as the whole picture fits in one page."

59 :integerops "Integer operations in Faust are inspired by the semantics of operations on the n-bit two's complement representation of integer numbers; they are internal composition laws on the subset $[\,-2^{n-1}, 2^{n-1}\!-\!1\,]$ of $\mathbb{Z}$, with $n = 32$. For any integer binary operation $\times$ on $\mathbb{Z}$, the $\otimes$ operation is defined as: $i \otimes j = \mathrm{normalize}(i \times j)$, with "
60 "$$\mathrm{normalize}(i) = i - N\cdot\mathrm{sign}(i) \cdot \left\lfloor \frac{|i|+N/2+(\mathrm{sign}(i)\!-\!1)/2}{N} \right\rfloor , $$"
