An Interactive Guide to the Fourier Transform
Summary: The Fourier Transform is a mathematical technique that takes a time-based pattern, measures every possible cycle, and returns the overall "cycle recipe." It helps analyze, compare, and modify patterns more easily. The technique can be applied in various fields, such as earthquake-resistant building design, sound wave manipulation, data compression, and radio wave filtering. The Fourier Transform is about finding the root causes behind an observed effect and can be visualized as circular paths or cycles.
