Hey, I am experiencing problem using fft function. Since FFT function
provides the fourier transform of a certain input, for example,
8*cos(!PI*x/6), I would expect an amplitude of 4 at 2 shifted frequencies,
namely -!PI/6 and PI/6. However after I recieved data from the FFT, I
recieved some amplitudes close to 2 at some random locations, can anyone
explain to me why it happened? Thanks for your time.
