## ckgoto

ckgoto — Conditionally transfer control during the p-time passes.

## Description

During the p-time passes only, conditionally transfer control to the statement labeled by label.

## Syntax

    ckgoto condition, label

where label is in the same instrument block and is not an expression, and where condition uses one of the Relational operators (<, =, <=, ==, !=) (and = for convenience, see also under Conditional Values).

## Examples

Here is an example of the ckgoto opcode. It uses the file ckgoto.csd.

Example 118. Example of the ckgoto opcode.

See the sections Real-time Audio and Command Line Flags for more information on using command line flags.

      ; If kval is greater than or equal to 1 then play the high note.
      ; If not then play the low note.
      ckgoto (kval >= 1), highnote
        kgoto lownote

    highnote:
      kfreq = 880
      goto playit

    lownote:
      kfreq = 440
      goto playit

    playit:
      ; Print the values of kval and kfreq.
      printks "kval = %f, kfreq = %f\\n", 1, kval, kfreq

Its output should include lines like:

    kval = 0.000000, kfreq = 440.000000
    kval = 0.999732, kfreq = 440.000000
    kval = 1.999639, kfreq = 880.000000
