• First, define a function c(n) representing the general term c

n

in the complex

Fourier series.


• Next, define the finite complex Fourier series, F(X,k), where X is the

independent variable and k determines the number of terms to be used.
Ideally we would like to write this finite complex Fourier series as

However, because the function c(n) is not defined for n = 0, we will be
better advised to re-write the expression as

Or, in the calculator entry line as:

DEFINE(‘F(X,k,c0) = c0+

Σ(n=1,k,c(n)*EXP(2*i*π*n*X/T)+

c(-n)*EXP(-(2*i*

π*n*X/T))’),


where T is the period, T = 2. The following screen shots show the definition of
function F and the storing of T = 2:
