CPU Cycle Counter Formula in AudioStream

[chipaudette]

I love how the Audio library lets you see what fraction of the processor is being consumed by different blocks in your audio processing chain. But, in looking at the formula, I don't understand how the calculation is done...

From AudioStream.h, I see this formula:

#define CYCLE_COUNTER_APPROX_PERCENT(n) (((n) + (F_CPU / 32 / AUDIO_SAMPLE_RATE * AUDIO_BLOCK_SAMPLES / 100)) / (F_CPU / 16 / AUDIO_SAMPLE_RATE * AUDIO_BLOCK_SAMPLES / 100))

I understand the scaling by the sample rate and block size. The part that I don't understand is the bit in red. Why is there this additive term?

Why is there this additive term?

It rounds to the nearest integer. Or at least it did in the days when AUDIO_SAMPLE_RATE was expressed as an integer.
