Re: [IRCA] [Lowfer] The "Most Important Algorithm Of Our Lifetime"

["Doug Martin" <martin-doug@xxxxxxx>]

   Hi.  Where can I get a copy of this article?  When I was taking dsp 
courses in grad school in the late 70's, some of our exam questions involved 
writing programs to implement various strange forms of fft algorithms, such 
as an algorithm for powers of three.  Of course, the standard fft algorithm 
obtains computational speed using arrays of 1024, 2048, etc.  I thought the 
speed of computation had been maximized and analyzed to death, so I'm very 
interested in this article.
