Fourier Series with Rotating Arms: an interactive model

Fourier Series with Rotating Arms: an interactive model

Draw a line with 128 rotating arms chained from longest to shortest, one arm for each term of a Fourier series, and see how the terms are computed from the line. The page notes that the arms are stacked apart only so they can be seen, and shows the Gibbs overshoot of about 9% at a jump.
