‘SIGMA’ is a comprehensive package for the BBC microcomputer for manipulating and analysing signals in the time and frequency domains. Its ‘high-level’ language gives it great flexibility for applications involving discrete Fourier transforms and convolution. Effects such as noise, nonlinearities, modulation and quantisation are readily simulated.
