Abstract Title: Singing the Praises of Octave for Fourier Analysis
Abstract: Octave is a MATLAB workalike with ability to synthesize, record and play sound. Along with analytical abilities which include Fourier transforms, an understanding of frequency domain operations can be had without use of packages. By using the student's own voice, ownership of the data helps learning. Some aspects of FFTs are nonintuitive, but practice working with them, especially using graphical displays, helps to overcome barriers to understanding.
