Fourier Transform (FFT)Live
decompose a signal into frequencies
Controls
Build a signal from a few sine tones plus noise, and the discrete Fourier transform recovers exactly which frequencies are present — the foundation of all signal processing.

Governing equation
Reading this result: The FFT splits this 2-tone signal into bins: each input sinusoid at 4, 9 appears as a distinct spike, and with noise at 0 the baseline between them stays clean.
