yeah. there would be no Cooley-Tukey goin' on here. essentially, it's a bank of resonant filters. perhaps one could come up with complementary spectral envelopes in the log(f) scale that would add to 1. but i dunno if you could get such a sliding window using truncated IIR filters, so the Fourier Transform of it looks like one of these complementary spectral envelopes. if it doesn't, adding the results of these will not get you perfect reconstruction. > Regarding Corona: I’m doing home office with a view on my garden.

How is the supply with TP? before the crisis onset, we had two 12-roll packages, one hasn't been opened. i'm not too uncomfortable about provisions. i haven't yet seen the store yet, but i might this afternoon (that'll be sobering). i need to buy some booze. i live at the mouth of a river into Lake Champlain (44.527966 lat, -73.270829 long). it's 2-dimensional, but i have a 200 acre natural waterpark in my back yard. with the snow cover in the watershed melting, i'll be canoeing in maybe 24 hours or less (and remain within the city limits of the most populous city in the state.) but i am pretty concerned about the present thing and i was around for cold war, Cuban missile crisis, JFK assassination, 1968 (two assassinations, burning streets, Chicago DNC), U.S. president forced out of office mid-term, 911 and this is worrisome. i should have converted my TIAA-CREF retirement investment from stock to bonds last January. There's not that much in there, but it looks like the curves of the markets. > > Steffan > > PS.: Did somebody not see the formulas in my post?
