Periodic versus non-periodic function
As part of the first homework in ECE301 this semester, we were asked to give an example of a periodic function as well as an example of a non-periodic function. Here are my answers. A precise definition of periodic function can be found on my colleague Brian Thomas' page.
Periodic Function
Example of Periodic Function since it is a repeated signal every cycle --> Triangle Wave
Non-Periodic Function
Example of Non-Periodic Function since it does not repeat itself each cycle --> y = lnx
