Product: Fedora https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=881794 --- Comment #2 from Susi Lehtola <susi.lehtola@xxxxxx> --- The summary Summary: "C-Graph" is an abbreviation for "Convolution Graph" is bad. For some reason rpmlint doesn't complain about this, since you've spelled the name with capital letters. The summary should simply read Summary: A tool for visualizing convolutions in signal analysis ** I'd also shorten the description to %description C-Graph is a novel tool for visualizing the mathematical operation of convolution underlying natural phenomena susceptible to analysis in terms of engineering signals and systems theory. C-Graph computes the linear convolution of two signals in the time domain then compares their circular convolution by demonstrating the convolution theorem. Each signal is modelled by a register of discrete values simulating samples of a signal, and the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) computed by means of the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). GNU C-Graph is interactive, prompting the user to enter character or numerical values from the keyboard, dispensing with the learning curve for writing code. The software is an excellent tool for lecture demonstrations and lab work in the teaching of signals and systems theory. ** <Very much OT> Although a special program written in a low-level language for demonstrating convolutions might have made sense in the 1980s, it's way out of date today when better solutions exist out-of-the-box. For instance, GNU Octave could very easily be used to perform all of the Fourier transforms, plots and so on, with very little effort, since .m files can be run as shell scripts. Not only does this make development a lot faster, but also the transforms use better algorithms (e.g. fftw), and if the user ends up looking at the script, s/he'll instantly learn how these things are done in practice -- using Octave. PS. I'd like to note that the user interface of the program would require some polishing, e.g. checks that the user input was OK or not (see stat argument for Fortran READ function). </OT> -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
