ComplexImages • ForwardFourierTransformImage • InverseFourierTransformImage

## ComplexImages

ComplexImages() performs complex mathematics on an image sequence.

The format of the ComplexImages method is:

    MagickBooleanType ComplexImages(Image *images,const ComplexOperator op,
      ExceptionInfo *exception)

A description of each parameter follows:

image
  the image.
op
  A complex operator.
exception
  return any errors or warnings in this structure.

## ForwardFourierTransformImage

ForwardFourierTransformImage() implements the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) of the image either as a magnitude / phase or real / imaginary image pair.

The format of the ForwadFourierTransformImage method is:

    Image *ForwardFourierTransformImage(const Image *image,
      const MagickBooleanType modulus,ExceptionInfo *exception)

A description of each parameter follows:

image
  the image.
modulus
  if true, return as transform as a magnitude / phase pair otherwise a real / imaginary image pair.
exception
  return any errors or warnings in this structure.

## InverseFourierTransformImage

InverseFourierTransformImage() implements the inverse discrete Fourier transform (DFT) of the image either as a magnitude / phase or real / imaginary image pair.

The format of the InverseFourierTransformImage method is:

    Image *InverseFourierTransformImage(const Image *magnitude_image,
      const Image *phase_image,const MagickBooleanType modulus,
      ExceptionInfo *exception)

A description of each parameter follows:

magnitude_image
  the magnitude or real image.
phase_image
  the phase or imaginary image.
modulus
  if true, return transform as a magnitude / phase pair otherwise a real / imaginary image pair.
exception
  return any errors or warnings in this structure.
