Fonction sinc - module scipy.special

Signature de la fonction sinc

def sinc(x) 

Description

sinc.__doc__

    Return the normalized sinc function.

    The sinc function is :math:`\sin(\pi x)/(\pi x)`.

    .. note::

        Note the normalization factor of ``pi`` used in the definition.
        This is the most commonly used definition in signal processing.
        Use ``sinc(x / np.pi)`` to obtain the unnormalized sinc function
        :math:`\sin(x)/(x)` that is more common in mathematics.

    Parameters
    ----------
    x : ndarray
        Array (possibly multi-dimensional) of values for which to to
        calculate ``sinc(x)``.

    Returns
    -------
    out : ndarray
        ``sinc(x)``, which has the same shape as the input.

    Notes
    -----
    ``sinc(0)`` is the limit value 1.

    The name sinc is short for "sine cardinal" or "sinus cardinalis".

    The sinc function is used in various signal processing applications,
    including in anti-aliasing, in the construction of a Lanczos resampling
    filter, and in interpolation.

    For bandlimited interpolation of discrete-time signals, the ideal
    interpolation kernel is proportional to the sinc function.
