Firstly, you should probably use more specific titles when posting to
mailing lists. "Very important" looks like a virus-laden or spam message.

Secondly, all of the sources to Octave are available from the download
page at www.octave.org.


If you type "which fft" at the Octave prompt, you will see that fft is a
builtin function. It is not implemented as an m-file.

There are numerous Octave files which have some part to play in the
implementation of FFT:

$ find /usr/local/src/octave/octave -name "*fft*"
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/libcruft/fftpack
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/libcruft/fftpack/cfftb.f
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/libcruft/fftpack/cfftb1.f
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/libcruft/fftpack/cfftf.f
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/libcruft/fftpack/cfftf1.f
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/libcruft/fftpack/cffti.f
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/libcruft/fftpack/cffti1.f
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/libcruft/fftpack/fftpack.doc
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/liboctave/oct-fftw.cc
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/liboctave/oct-fftw.h
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/scripts/signal/fftconv.m
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/scripts/signal/fftfilt.m
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/scripts/signal/fftshift.m
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/src/DLD-FUNCTIONS/fft.cc
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/src/DLD-FUNCTIONS/fft2.cc
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/src/DLD-FUNCTIONS/fftn.cc
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/src/DLD-FUNCTIONS/fftw_wisdom.cc
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/test/octave.test/signal/fft-1.m
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/test/octave.test/signal/fft2-1.m
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/test/octave.test/signal/ifft-1.m
/usr/local/src/octave/octave/test/octave.test/signal/ifft2-1.m

All of these files can be obtained in a tarball of via CVS. See
http://www.octave.org/download

If you look at fft.cc, you will see that a call to the fourier()
function in the NDArray code occurs,

try:
$ find /usr/local/src/octave/octave -name "*NDArray*"

However, the actual FFT itself is performed using standard libraries. If
you have the FFTW3 library installed on your system, Octave will use
that. If not, it will use FFTPACK (the code to which is contained in the
octave/libcruft directory).

if you are interested where fftw3 comes from:

http://www.fftw.org/

here you find everything ...
