Free public beta until December 4, 2026: every course is open, no card needed. After that, the first chapter of each course stays free and full access is a one-time $39 ($19 for up to 100 founding members chosen for helpful feedback). Your progress is kept. How the beta works

even and odd symmetry

A signal is even (symmetric) when x[-n]=x[n], and odd (antisymmetric) when x[-n]=-x[n].

A sequence is even (symmetric) when x[-n]=x[n] -- a mirror image of itself around n=0 -- and odd (antisymmetric) when x[-n]=-x[n], flipped in sign as well as reflected. Every signal decomposes uniquely into an even part plus an odd part.
