Subjectgen 9/19?
How do the numbers for non-harmonic partials work? How many cents
higher is the partial 3.5, for example, than 3.0? Can I get any note I
want as a partial or are there limitations? Thanks

It doesn't work like that. If you have a partial that is 3.5, then it is a sine with 3 1/2 cycles in the table. The result will be non-sinusoidal because of the incomplete cycle (i.e. a wave with more than one partial) if you use an oscillator to read it.
