Hidden in the Matlab basic functions I discovered
fourier(f)
existst. This seems useful I thought, because It applies the fourier-transform to the function f by calculating the complex integral.
But how can I take use of that? I thought, by doing the transform, I can simply plot it:
syms x
FT = fourier(x^2)
fplot(FT)
isn't doing much. Is there a misunderstanding at the root?

syms x w
FT(w) = fourier(x^2, x, w)
FT(-1), FT(0), FT(1)
fplot(FT)
The empty plot is to be expected as the value is 0 everywhere exact at w = 0 exactly, where it is -infinity .

No, that is not correct. The fourier transform is an infinite integral https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourier_transform#Definition
The Fourier Transform is the infinite case of the Fourier Series https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourier_Series#Definition
With the fourier transform being an infinite integral, there are some cases where the value of the entire integral is known; this happens to be one of them.
