FFT algorithm">Rader's algorithm, exploiting the existence of a generator for the multiplicative group modulo prime n, expresses a DFT of prime size n as a cyclic convolution of (composite) size n - 1, which can then be computed by a pair of ordinary FFTs via the convolution theorem (although Winograd uses other convolution methods).
There are further FFT specializations for the cases of real data that have even/odd symmetry, in which case one can gain another factor of ~2 in time/space and the DFT becomes the discrete cosine/sine transform(s) (DCT/DST).

For the transformation of 2 (d=0) or 4 (d=1) numbers there is a very nice alternative, since it is possible to avoid making any multiplications at all, thanks to the fact that all multiplications would anyway be by a power of the imaginary unit.

 FFT Software - Fast Fourier Transform .NET Component, Visual Basic .Net, C++, C#
To efficiently compute FFTs, it is important that the FFT algorithm is implemented efficiently in code to give maximum speed and reliability.
When you are developing multiple applications or an application that needs to be maintained in the long term, within constraints of time and budget, probably the most effective use of your time is to pass the numerical processing to a tightly written, multithreaded component such as Transform/NET to handle it.
The FFT algorithms are all written in highly efficient, 100 % managed Visual C# to ensure that you can achieve highly efficient, reliable spectral analysis within your applications or web site.

 FAST-FOURIER-TRANSFORM ( FTT ) DESCRIPTION   (Site not responding. Last check: )
It has been known for a long time that any waveform can be transformed into its frequency spectrum, or Fourier series, by a long mathematical process called the Fourier Transform, but it was too computationally intensive and computers were too slow for it to be of much use.
The FFT transforms a waveform into a series of sines and cosines (or amplitudes and phase-angles) at each frequency present in the original signal.
A FFT takes approximately (n/2) log2(n) complex multiplications to complete, or about 5000 for a 1024 point FFT Vs over (1 million for the original Fourier Transform; a 1024 point FFT will take about 0.1 second or less on a modern personal computer.

 Fast Fourier Transform
Transforms were used to study sound waves, frequency vibrations, and other repetitive occurrences.
Fourier analysis is the process of decomposing seemingly complex, chaotic data into a sum of sinusoids of different cycle lengths.
Developed by Jean Baptiste Fourier in 1807, Fourier analysis proves that any given waveform can be broken down into a combination of sinewaves of different amplitude (maximum value), frequency (rate of vibration), and phase -- the three basic properties of cycles.
