This generates the log of a modified Bessel function of the second kind, order 0, suitable for use in amplitude-modulated FM.
size -- number of points in the table. Must be a power of 2 or a power-of-2 plus 1 (see f statement). The normal value is power-of-2 plus 1.
xint -- specifies the x interval [0 to +xint] over which the function is defined.

Here is a simple example of the GEN12 routine. It uses the files gen12.orc and gen12.sco. It generates the function ln(I0(x)) from 0 to 20. Here is its diagram:
