dask.array.fft.fft
dask.array.fft.fft¶
- dask.array.fft.fft(a, n=None, axis=None, norm=None)¶
Wrapping of numpy.fft.fft
The axis along which the FFT is applied must have only one chunk. To change the array’s chunking use dask.Array.rechunk.
The numpy.fft.fft docstring follows below:
Compute the one-dimensional discrete Fourier Transform.
This function computes the one-dimensional n-point discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) with the efficient Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) algorithm [CT].
- Parameters
- aarray_like
Input array, can be complex.
- nint, optional
Length of the transformed axis of the output. If n is smaller than the length of the input, the input is cropped. If it is larger, the input is padded with zeros. If n is not given, the length of the input along the axis specified by axis is used.
- axisint, optional
Axis over which to compute the FFT. If not given, the last axis is used.
- norm{“backward”, “ortho”, “forward”}, optional
New in version 1.10.0.
Normalization mode (see numpy.fft). Default is “backward”. Indicates which direction of the forward/backward pair of transforms is scaled and with what normalization factor.
New in version 1.20.0: The “backward”, “forward” values were added.
- outcomplex ndarray, optional
If provided, the result will be placed in this array. It should be of the appropriate shape and dtype.
New in version 2.0.0.
- Returns
- outcomplex ndarray
The truncated or zero-padded input, transformed along the axis indicated by axis, or the last one if axis is not specified.
- Raises
- IndexError
If axis is not a valid axis of a.

Notes
FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) refers to a way the discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) can be calculated efficiently, by using symmetries in the calculated terms. The symmetry is highest when n is a power of 2, and the transform is therefore most efficient for these sizes.
The DFT is defined, with the conventions used in this implementation, in the documentation for the numpy.fft module.

Examples
>>> import numpy as np >>> np.fft.fft(np.exp(2j * np.pi * np.arange(8) / 8)) array([-2.33486982e-16+1.14423775e-17j, 8.00000000e+00-1.25557246e-15j, 2.33486982e-16+2.33486982e-16j, 0.00000000e+00+1.22464680e-16j, -1.14423775e-17+2.33486982e-16j, 0.00000000e+00+5.20784380e-16j, 1.14423775e-17+1.14423775e-17j, 0.00000000e+00+1.22464680e-16j])
In this example, real input has an FFT which is Hermitian, i.e., symmetric in the real part and anti-symmetric in the imaginary part, as described in the numpy.fft documentation:
>>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt >>> t = np.arange(256) >>> sp = np.fft.fft(np.sin(t)) >>> freq = np.fft.fftfreq(t.shape[-1]) >>> plt.plot(freq, sp.real, freq, sp.imag) [<matplotlib.lines.Line2D object at 0x...>, <matplotlib.lines.Line2D object at 0x...>] >>> plt.show()
