Practice Problem on Discrete-time Fourier transform computation
Compute the discrete-time Fourier transform of the following signal:
$ x[n]= u[n+2]-u[n-1] $
See these Signal Definitions if you do not know what is the step function "u[n]".
(Write enough intermediate steps to fully justify your answer.)

Answer 1
$ X_(\omega) = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} x[n] e^{-j\omega n} $
$ = \sum_{n=-2}^{0} x[n] e^{-j\omega n} $
$ = e^{2j\omega} + e^{j\omega} + 1 $
Answer 2

$ X_{2\pi}(\omega) = \sum_{n=-\infty}^{+\infty} x[n] e^{-j\omega n} $
$ = \sum_{n=-2}^{0} x[n] e^{-j\omega n} $
$ = e^{2j\omega} + e^{j\omega} + 1 $
