Example 3a: Periodic Step Signal
Instead of plotting both the magnitude and the angle of
the complex coefficients, we only need to plot the value
of the coefficients.
Note we have an infinite series of non-zero coefficients

Matlab
To use the CT Fourier transform, you need to have the symbolic
toolbox for Matlab installed. If this is so, try typing:
>> syms t;
>> fourier(cos(t))
>> fourier(cos(2*t))
>> fourier(sin(t))
>> fourier(exp(-t^2))
Note also that the ifourier() function exists so…
>> ifourier(fourier(cos(t)))
