DEMO_NEXTFASTFFT - Next fast FFT number

Program code:

%DEMO_NEXTFASTFFT  Next fast FFT number
%
%   This demo shows the behaviour of the NEXTFASTFFT function.
%
%   Figure 1: Benchmark of the FFT routine
%
%      The figure shows the sizes returned by the NEXTFASTFFT function
%      compared to using nextpow2. As can be seen, the NEXTFASTFFT
%      approach gives FFT sizes that are much closer to the input size.
%
%   Figure 2: Efficiency of the table
%
%      The figure show the highest output/input ratio for varying input
%      sizes. As can be seen, the efficiency is better for larger input
%      values, where the output size is at most a few percent larger than
%      the input size.

% Range to use for testing.
% It is important for this script that
% range_max = 2^nextpow2(range_max) = nextfastfft(range_max), so it must
% be a power of 2.

range_max=1024;
r=range_min:range_max;

% r2 contains the next higher sizes using nextpow2
r2=2.^nextpow2(r);

% r3 contains the next higher sizes using nextfastfft
r3=nextfastfft(r);
