One operation that will be particularly useful is that of the inner product of two functions: ----> define inner product here +$$ +\begin{array}{ccl} +inner product, (f,g) & = & \int_0^{2\pi} f g dx\\ +\mid f \mid ^2 & = & (f, f) & = & \int_0^{2\pi} f^2 dx\\ +\end{array} +$$ This is the inner product of 2 real-number functions. For a function on complex numbers, the above definition must be altered as follows: --> altered function here |
