Hello all. I am working on a problem for class that is taking some time data and changing it to frequency data. I am using excel and the fast Fourier transform(fft).
I am having a problem graphing the results. I am very new to signal processing.
I am only given the data which is 1024 points long.
I will only ask for help with one because if I figure this one out I can do the rest.
The period is .117. Making the sampline rate 1/.117.
I have the two columns of data here is an example.
The first column is (1*(1/.117)/1024) and the second is the fft values.

My problems is that I don't know how to graph the values correctly. The graph as it stands is not right. Someone told me that I have to remove the DC zero values? I do not know how to do that and that is why I am asking for help.
Thank you
