<U>DESCRIPTION</U></H4>
Produce a normalized moving phase value.
<H4>
<U>INITIALIZATION</U></H4>
<I>iphs</I> (optional) - initial phase, expressed as a fraction of a cycle
(0 to 1). A negative value will cause phase initialization to he skipped.
The default value is zero.
<H4>
<U>PERFORMANCE</U></H4>
An internal phase is successively accumulated in accordance with the cps
frequency to produce a moving phase value, normalized to lie in the range
0. &lt;= phs &lt; 1.

<P>When used as the index to a <B><A HREF="./table.html">table</A></B> unit,
this phase (multiplied by the desired function table length) will cause
it to behave like an oscillator.

<P>Note that <B>phasor</B> is a special kind of integrator, accumulating
phase increments that represent frequency settings.
<H4>
<U>EXAMPLE:</U></H4>
