The provided m-file:
* Reads a wav file.
* Splits the audio data into non-overlapping windows (e.g 1 second).
* For each window, an image of the audio data and the corresponding spectrogram is created and attached to an animated .gif file.
M-file description:
function createAnimatedGifFromWav(wavFileName, windowLength, Width, framesPerSec)
ARGUMENTS:
- wavFileName: the name of the .wav file to read
- windowLength: the length (in seconds) of each window to be plotted in the gif
- Width: the width of the generated .gif file
- framesPerSec: frames per second for the gif annotated file.
