TI-84 Plus Fast Fourier Transform
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Introduction
The program FFT1 performs the fast Fourier transform of discrete data points named in List 1 (small x, signal at time points) to List 2 (big X, frequency), using the formula:
X_k = ∑( x_n * e^(-i*2*π*k*m)/n from m = 0 to n - 1)
For the set of n signals.
The program IFFT1, the Inverse Fast Fourier Transform, reverses the process (big X to small x, List 2 to List 1).
x_k = 1/n * ∑( x_n * e^(i*2*π*k*m)/n from m = 0 to n - 1)

Example
FFT Example:
L1 = {2i, 1+i, 3}
Result (Fix 4): {4.0000+3.0000*i, -1.1340+3.2321*i, -2.8660-0.2321*i}
Inverse FFT Example:
L2 = {0.5, -0.7i, 0.9+0.3i}
Result (Fix 4): {0.4667-0.1333*i, 0.3053-0.1931*i, -0.2720+0.3265*i}
Trigonometric Version
For calculators that do not handle complex numbers, here are the sample code that can handle FFT and IFFT. The techinque here is to use a pair of lists, one for the real parts, the other for imaginary parts. Example: {2, 3+3i, -2i} get split into {2, 3, 0} and {0, 3, -2}.
The following identities and calculation are used:
e^(i*θ) = cos θ + i * sin θ
(a + b*i)*e^(-i*θ)
= (a + b*i) * (cos θ - i * sin θ)
= a * cos θ + i * b * cos θ - i * a * sin θ + b * sin θ
= (a * cos θ + b * sin θ) + i * (b * cos θ - a * sin θ)
(a + b*i)*e^(i*θ)
= (a + b*i) * (cos θ + i * sin θ)
= a * cos θ + i * b * cos θ + i * a * sin θ - b * sin θ
= (a * cos θ - b * sin θ) + i * (b * cos θ + a * sin θ)
where θ = 2*π*m*k/n

Goodies!
Shout out to Texas Instruments for sending me a TI-84 Plus C graphing calculator last month. Thank you! (Apologizes on being late about it.)
My first graphing calculator was a TI-81, which I still have and it's working. I think I currently have four of the TI-84 family (83+ Silver, 84+, and two 84 color editions).
My Amazon order came in last week: "Mathematical Astronomy Morsels" by Jean Meeus. It can shrink wrapped, which is nice. I found out that Meeus calculated how long the Age of Pisces was going to last (until 2597). Here, the definition of age is determined the placement of the vernal equinox.
Thanks Agena Astroproducts for quick delivery.
Just wanted to show you some of the goodies.
