The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) is an algorithm that efficiently computes the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) and its inverse. The DFT converts a sequence of values from the time domain into components of different frequencies, facilitating the analysis of frequency content within signals. The FFT significantly reduces the computational complexity of this process, making it feasible to perform frequency analysis on large datasets.
