Today we introduced the z-transform formula and observed its similarity to the DTFT formula. More precisely, we noticed that the DTFT is a restriction of the z-transform to the unit circle. We then computed a couple of z-transforms as examples. It was observed that there may be values of z for which the z-transform does not exist. Even though we did not see the formula for the inverse z-transform, we were able to invert a z-transform simply by comparing the expression for the given z-transform to the formula for the z-transform. As we will see later, this trick will be very handy for inverting z-transforms in general.
