Exercises with Mathcad Documents


The following Mathcad documents help describe and develop major concepts with the Fourier Transform and with FT-NMR. Most have a series of questions at the end. Follow along as you read through the documents. Variables highlighted in yellow are supposed to be changed. See what happens. For more information on using Mathcad for teaching and for using these documents go to: Mathcad applications in Chemistry.
