The idea, introduced by Joseph Fourier in the early 19th century, is that even very complex repeating waveforms can be broken down into simpler trigonometric components. Each term in the series corresponds to a frequency component of the original function, with coefficients determining the amplitude of the sine and cosine waves. T
