Using Maxima to plot error in Fourier series

[Allan McPherson]

I'm trying to use Maxima to examine the error in a Fourier series as the number of terms increases. I've figured out how to produce a Fourier series and plot partial sums, but this has me stumped.

If anyone experienced with the Maxima CAS has some insight into this, I would greatly appreciate the help.

Hi Allan,
I use Maxima with WxMaxima a lot so possibly I can help if you post or send me what you've done so far.
