A Fourier Transform (FFT) is a method of calculating the frequency components in a data set - and the inverse FFT converts back from the frequency domain - 4 applications of the FFT rotates you round the complex plane and leaves you back with the original data.

In this page the FFT is implemented with the [[wikipedia:FFT#Cooley–Tukey algorithm|Cooley–Tukey algorithm]] by dividing the transform into two pieces of size <source lang=apl inline>N÷2</source> at each step.
