Does FFT mean something besides Fast Fourier Transform?

I asked this question which was deleted as violating community guidelines.

What I am asking is about time-frequency domain mathematical transform. The deletion process is pretty cold blooded, they do not give you a hint. If trolls are at work maybe this is not a safe place to even have e-mail? They say in the guidelines they can delete your email permanently too.

"After an FFT, how do you get frequency and power?"

    There are less than savoury interpretations of that acronym, see http://www.urbandictionary.com/ , however the first definition is Fast Fourier Transform. Don't know if this is useful but http://www.silcom.com/~aludwig/Signal_processing/S... which explains the relationship between the time variation of a signal and its frequency spectrum and digital signals. There are links to other pages explaining more about Fourier analysis.

    Sorry can't help, but have you tried the Internet? I got over 220 hits when browsing "FFT fast Fourier transform". You might also find something under Laplacian.
