fftpack4

fftpack4, a C code which computes Fast Fourier Transforms, by Paul Swarztrauber;

Special features include:

• real or complex data can be handled;
• separate routines for forward analysis (data => Fourier coefficients) and backward analysis (Fourier coefficients => data);
• sine and cosine transform routines;
• quarter wave sine and cosine transform routines;
• the amount of data is NOT required to be a power of 2.

Routines in the library come in groups of three:

• an initialization routine;
• the forward computational routine (data to FFT coefficients);
• the backward computational routine (FFT coefficients to data).

The following table groups the routines:

Initialization	Forward	Backward	Purpose
CFFTI	CFFTF	CFFTB	FFT for complex data
COSQI	COSQF	COSQB	Even function 1D quarter-cosine FFT for real data
COSTI	COST	COST	Even function 1D cosine FFT for real data
EZFFTI	EZFFTF	EZFFTB	FFT for real data
RFFTI	RFFTF	RFFTB	FFT for real data
SINQI	SINQF	SINQB	Even function 1D quarter-sine FFT for real data
SINTI	SINT	SINT	Even function 1D sine FFT for real data
