Fourier Series Animation using Harmonic Circles
Editor's Note: This file was selected as MATLAB Central Pick of the Week
The animation is divided into two parts. In the first part, it shows first three harmonics as circles and how they are mapped to sinusoids. In the second part, it combines each harmonics and circles to obtain the synthesis of the square wave.
The whole animation can be watched at http://youtu.be/LznjC4Lo7lE
