FFTs-part2

The DFT (discrete Fourier transform) is basically a digital sampling (ie approximation) of the analog Fourier transform, and as such it remains finite throughout the domain.

A fast Fourier transform (FFT) is an efficient algorithm to compute the discrete Fourier transform and its inverse, for eg, a particular problem.
