[Help-gsl] FFT

[Klaus Huthmacher]

Dear fellows,

I have another question concerning the FFT of the GSL. I wanted to start 
low and tried to transform a sine signal.

Since I assume a data set I take into account real values and a length 
of any magnitude. Thus I end up with Section 16.7: Mixed - radix FFT 
routines for real data, am I right?

But to be honest I do not fully grasp between the two methods 
real_transform and halfcomplex_transform. The first leads to an expected 
\delta - peak while the second method leads to 'oscillating boundaries'.

Furthermore I am highly confused that the FFT functions only need the 
data in the sense of the 'values' of a function and not the 
corresponding x values.

I thought to be quiete familier with the fouriertransform by solving 
equations with paper and pencil but this GSL implementation is curious.

Can someone give me a little more insight?

In the appendix is a minimal example together with a makefile.

Kind regards,

    Klaus Huthmacher.
