I know, I'm only kidding :-)

yes, but it helped me to understand what each of the parameters did and how
it affected the sound.
I'm not a math guy, so to me understand what the varisou bits did was
important, for example, the line that says ;-
input *= 0.35013 * (f*f)*(f*f);

just looked daft to me, until I played with it and understood why the
(f*f)*(f*f) was there.
