fft: characteristic function to distribution
The characteristic function is the inverse Fourier transform of the distribution function. The characteristic function of a normaly distributed random variable is exp(-t^2/2). x=seq(-2,2,length=100) fft(pnorm(x),inverse=T)/length(x) exp(-x^2/2) Why aren't the inverse fft and the mentioned function the same? Thanks for help, Thomas
