Fourier

Usage
Notes
Further Examples

Here is some sample data.

In[1]:=  

This computes the discrete Fourier transform of the data. In general, the result is a list of complex numbers.

In[2]:=  

Out[2]=

Chop is used to discard the tiny imaginary parts that appear due to numerical error.

In[3]:=  

Out[3]=

As a check here is the computation of the discrete Fourier transform directly from the definition.

In[4]:=  

Out[4]=

This returns the original data.

In[5]:=  

Out[5]=

This gives the discrete Fourier transform of the data with Fourier parameters as used in signal processing.

In[6]:=  

Out[6]=

Here is an example in two dimensions such as might come up in analyzing light passing through an aperture.

In[7]:=  

Out[7]=

This gives the two-dimensional discrete Fourier transform.

In[8]:=  

Out[8]=

In[9]:=
