The F values are ______ (unless noted, assume
____). An M in theModal column means ____, while
an X means ____.



extra info:
All the letters but C, G, M, Q, and T come right before
specification values - a C, G, M, Q, or T followed by a
number will trigger a specific type of behavior while any other
letter followed by a number specifies a rate, offset, position, or
other such thing.
