What is the best and simplest way to solve Fourier series problems?
 
Mathematics news on Phys.org
It might help if you told us what you meant by "Fourier series problems"!

Find the Fourier series corresponding to a given periodic function?

Find the periodic function corresponding to a given Fourier series?

Use Fourier series to solve a given differential equation problem?

Find the "frequency space" form for a given time series?

The list could go on and on!
 
yeah give us a specific problem. there are so many different kinds i don't know where to start.
