Fourier Transform Example
Fourier transforms are hard!! Which is why it would be nice to have a concrete example of a Fourier transform, which we do precisely in this video. Here we calculate the Fourier transform of the Gaussian function e^-x^2 or exp(-x squared) and the beautiful result is that it is again a Gaussian! This self-similarity or fractal property will be crucial when we'll solve the heat equation using the Fourier transform
