How to Create Discrete Plots of Fourier Series Coefficients in Mathematica 6?

AI Thread Summary
To create discrete plots of Fourier series coefficients in Mathematica 6, users can utilize ListPlot as an alternative to DiscretePlot. Although Mathematica 6 lacks the DiscretePlot function, ListPlot can effectively display the coefficients. To enhance the visual presentation, users can apply the FillingStyle option to adjust line thickness. Specifically, using FillingStyle -> Thickness[0.05] in Mathematica 7 has proven effective for similar tasks. This approach allows for a clear representation of the Fourier series coefficients despite the version limitations.

Hi, I'm trying to plot the coefficients of a Fourier series as a discrete plot. Does anyone know how I could go about doing this? I have mathematica 6 so DiscretePlot isn't there like in 7...

Any help would be great!

awesome thanks! is it possible to make the lines thicker if i have them come up from the x axis? cheers
 
I only have Mathematica 7 to test this with, but giving ListPlot the option FillingStyle -> Thickness[0.05] seems to work.
 

Thread 'Trigonometry problem of interest'

Seemingly by some mathematical coincidence, a hexagon of sides 2,2,7,7, 11, and 11 can be inscribed in a circle of radius 7. The other day I saw a math problem on line, which they said came from a Polish Olympiad, where you compute the length x of the 3rd side which is the same as the radius, so that the sides of length 2,x, and 11 are inscribed on the arc of a semi-circle. The law of cosines applied twice gives the answer for x of exactly 7, but the arithmetic is so complex that the...

Thread 'Six Pencil Puzzle'

Is it possible to arrange six pencils such that each one touches the other five? If so, how? This is an adaption of a Martin Gardner puzzle only I changed it from cigarettes to pencils and left out the clues because PF folks don’t need clues. From the book “My Best Mathematical and Logic Puzzles”. Dover, 1994.
