Use this dialog box to carry forward and inverse Fourier transforms.

 

Input

Specifies the worksheet location of the input data for this operation.

 

Valid Input Range

Provides a reference to the extent of the data available in the currently active worksheet. Use this range as a guide for typing valid extents in the Input Range box.

 

Input Range

Type in this box the range of cells containing the data you want to use as input for this command.

 

Series in Rows

Check this box to indicate that the data specified by the Input Range box is organized in rows as opposed to columns (the default).

 

Refer to Specifying Input Arguments for additional information on this subject.

 

Output

Specifies the worksheet location for placing the results of this operation.

 

New Workbook

Select this option to place the results of this operation in a new document workbook.

 

New Sheet

Select this option to place the results of this operation in a new worksheet.

 

Range Position

Select this option to place the results of this operation starting at the worksheet location specified in the box to the right of this option.

 

Refer to Specifying Output Locations for additional information on this subject.

 

Options

 

Inverse Transform

Check this box to carry an inverse Fourier transform.

 

noteAn inverse Fourier transform expects complex input arguments unless the Magnitude/Phase Input box is checked.  In this latter case, a set of magnitude/phase pair values is expected.

 

Complex Transform

Check this box to carry a complex forward Fourier transform.

 

noteChecking this option connotes complex input arguments unless the Magnitude/Phase Input box is checked.  In this latter case, a set of magnitude/phase pair values is expected.

 

Two-Dimensional

Check this box to carry forward and inverse 2-dimensional Fourier transforms.

 

Input / Output Format

 

Magnitude / Phase Output

Check this box to produce a set magnitude/phase pairs instead of complex numbers as the result of the operation.

 

Magnitude / Phase Input

Check this box to specify that the input is a set magnitude/phase pairs instead of a set of complex numbers.

 

Input From Odd Series

Check this box to specify that the input arguments to the inverse transform you want to carry correspond to a series of odd length.

 

Distinct Real and Imaginary Output

Check this box to specify you want the output as separate real and imaginary parts.

 

noteFailing to check this box produces a set of real/imaginary pairs.

 

Distinct Real and Imaginary Input

Check this box to specify that the input consists of separate real and imaginary parts as opposed to real/imaginary pairs.

 

OK

Closes the dialog box and carries out this operation.

 

Cancel

Closes the dialog box without carrying out this operation.
