Hi,

I have created a Fourier Transform tutorial. It is located here:

http://www.fourier-series.com/f-transform/index.html

It uses interactive flash programs to help you see how the fourier
transform works. There are currently 5 flash modules with lots of
embedded audio in each module.

The site also includes tutorials on the fourier series, complex
numbers, the discrete fourier transform and some radio frequency
topics.

As far as i can tell so far you have a good handle on the material.
You do need to polish up the audio tracks, there are far too many
pauses, umms, ahhs and the like. There is still too little follow
through on how the math works out. Try linking to much more detailed
math, not much need to put it in the mainline.

If you can find a copy try E. Oran Brigham's "The Fourier Transform",
It may really help you with the presentation.

Thanks for the reply.

I am deliberately trying to de-emphasize the math. This website is
intended for someone who already has looked over the math equations
and cannot visualize what they mean. The hope is after they go
through this site, they will be able to go back to their text book and
be able to make progress. The motivation came from me being a student
and not really getting any of this stuff until I pondered it a long
time and saw a few "ah-ha"s. I am trying to get them to see the ah-ha
's quickly.

As far as the audio goes -- I know it is amateurish. It is just
incredibly difficult to do the audio right. I have a real new found
respect for good narration. My intent is for the user to play with
the program, and the narration is there as kind of an instruction
manual.

Hey richard. Good to see that you are still alive.

PS Oops - maybe that was not such a great way of putting it .
