Cooley–Tukey FFT algorithm: History, The radix-2 DIT case & Variations

The Cooley–Tukey algorithm, named after J. W. Cooley and John Tukey, is the most common fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm. It re-expresses the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) of an arbitrary composite size N = N 1 N 2 {\displaystyle N=N_{1}N_{2}} in terms of N1 smaller DFTs of sizes N2, recursively, to reduce the computation time to O(N log N) for…
