%Part1
%Explanation: This program is designed to play the main melody of the song
%"Smoke On The Water".

delta_t = 0.00005; %determind the length of each tempo

%Question1
%Part2
%Explanation: The tune of part1 is played 2 times faster.

%Question1
%Part3
%Explanation: Rescale the signal x(t) from part 1 according to the
%transformation y(t) = x(2t).

%Note length calculated in seconds
Q = 0:delta_t:(q_l);
E = 0:delta_t:(e_l);

wavwrite(music3,1/delta_t,'smokeonthewater3.wav'); %save a file
pause(5); %pause for 5 seconds

%Question2
%Explanation: Extract the subliminal message by playing the extract
%backwards.
clear all;

[beatles, Fs] = wavread('Beatles.wav'); %read the file
Beatles_reversed = flipud(beatles); %reverse the song
sound(Beatles_reversed,Fs); %play the music
wavwrite(Beatles_reversed,Fs,'Beatles_reversed.wav');%save the sound file

%Questions
%1. The forward repeated phrase is 'number nine'.
%2. The reverse song contains a message. I believe the message is 'Turn me
%on, gentleman.'
