Hi Pablo,

I've implemented this last year:
https://github.com/csound/csound/blob/develop/Opcodes/quadbezier.c

I used this as a model:
https://github.com/csound/csound/blob/develop/Opcodes/fareygen.c

I'd love to know if there's a chance of developing them using C++. It's
so easy to develop with the new plugin.h header now!

Not yet, but I will try to design it.

Great to hear that, Victor! There was something about a const interator
in that header that wasn't returning a real const, but I forgot to make
a note in the moment. I'll see if I can find it after I come back.

Let me know and I will fix it.

Hey Victor,

I know what it was. Although having begin() and end() overloaded on
const, the Vector class template is missing cbegin() and cend(). Of
course one could just use a const reference to the object, but why every
other class template has those member functions and Vector doesn't?

Cheers.

There is a typo in the code, they're there but are called begin and end as well, without the  c. I will fix it when I get to the computer.

But shouldn't we have both (the overloaded and cbegin/cend) versions
like std::vector does?

 No, we need separate ones. C++ does not overload on return types.

No, but you can overload based on the const-ness of the object. Right
now, it's building successfully because of that (I think).

None of the other classes do that, I guess I can extend them to do it.
