[comp.dsp] C language Algorithm Book

There has been so much interest since my post I offer the following
more spefici information:

"C Language Algorithms for Digital Signal Processing"
Paul M. Embree
Bruce Kimble
Prentice Hall, ISBN 0-13-133406-9
1991

I cannot vouch for the contents, as I have just recently borrowed the book
and have not played with it yet. It does, however, seem to be a rather
clear text sitting on the fence between theory and practice.

An example for all you Nyquist conversants: From page 7, under "The Relationship
between the Spectrums of Continuous and Discrete time signals" I quote:

	"...the Nyquist sampling criterion...a continuous waveform,
	when sampled at a frequency greater than twice the maximum frequency 
	component in its spectrum, can be reconstructed completely
 	from its sampled waveform."

Now I don't assert that a retsatement of nyquist's idea proves a texts
value, but at least it was correct!
