    "# Implementing FIR filters\n",
    "\n",
    "In real-time filtering applications, filters are implemented by using some variation or other of their constant-coefficient difference equation (CCDE), so that one new output sample is generated for each new input sample. If all input data is available in advance, as in non-real-time (aka \"offline\") applications, then the CCDE-based algorithm is iteratively applied to all samples in the buffer.\n",
    "\n",
    "In the case of FIR filters, the CCDE coefficients correspond to the impulse response and implementing the CCDE is equivalent to performing a convolution sum. In this notebook we will look at different ways to implement FIR filters."

    "When filtering a finite-length data vector with a finite-length impulse response, we need to decide what to do with the \"invalid\" shifts appearing in the terms of the convolution sum. Remember that, in the infinite-length case, the output is defined as\n",

    "Now assume that $x[n]$ is a length-$N$ signal, so it is defined only for $0 \\leq n \\le N$ (we can safely consider $N > M$, otherwise exchange the roles of $x$ and $h$). In this case, the above sum is properly defined only for $M - 1 \\le n \\le N-1$; for any other value of $n$, the sum will contain an element $x[n-k]$ outside of the valid range of indices for the input. \n",
    "\n",
    "So, if we start with an $N$-point input, we can only formally compute $N-M+1$ output samples. While this may not be a problem in some applications, it certainly is troublesome if repeated filtering operations end up \"chipping away\" at the signal little by little.\n",
    "\n",
    "The solution is to \"embed\" the finite-length input data signal into an infinite-length sequence and, as always, the result will depend on the method we choose: finite support or periodization. (Note that the impulse response is already an infinite sequence since it's the response of the filter to the infinite sequence $\\delta[n]$). \n",
    "\n",
    "However, the embedding will create \"artificial\" data points that are dependent on the chosen embedding: these data points are said to suffer from **border effects**."

In order to filter an $N$-point signal we will need $NM$ multiplications. Assume $N \\approx M$ and you can see that the computational requirements are on the order of $M^2$.
