OK, here's a more concrete example.

A square wave is defined as a series of the *odd* harmonics where the 
contribution of each harmonic is inversely proportional to its harmonic 
number.

So the second, fourth, etc harmonics are all *zero*.

The third harmonic is 1/3 the amplitude of the fundamental, and the 
fifth is 1/5, etc.

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_wave

So the input "cos" table would just look like:

[ 0, 1, 0, 1/3, 0, 1/5, 0, 1/7, 0, 1/9, ... ]

The sin table for a square wave doesn't need any values because the 
harmonics are all in phase.  So just use all zeroes.
