Periodic Function - Complex Example

Complex Example

Using complex variables we have the common period function:

As you can see, since the cosine and sine functions are periodic, and the complex exponential above is made up of cosine/sine waves, then the above (actually Euler's formula) has the following property. If L is the period of the function then:
