I'm trying to implement a Discrete Fourier Transformation algorithm for a project I'm doing in school. But creating a class is seeming to be difficult(which it shouldn't be). I'm using Visual Studio 2012.

Basically I need a class called Complex to store the two values I get from a DFT; The real portion and the imaginary portion.

This is what I have so far for that:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace SoundEditor_V3
{
    public class Complex
    {
        public double real;
        public double im;

        public Complex()
        {
            real = 0;
            im = 0;
        }
    }
}

The problem is that it doesn't recognize the constructor as a constructor, now I'm just learning C#, but I looked it up online and this is how it's supposed to look apparently. It recognizes my constructor as a method.

Why is that? Am I creating the class wrong?

It's doing the same thing for my Fourier class as well. So each time I try to create a Fourier object and then use it's method...there is no such thing.

example, I do this:

Fourier fou = new Fourier();
fou.DFT(s, N,  amp, 0);

and it tells me fou is a 'field' but is used like a 'type' why is it saying that?

Here is the code for my Fourier class as well:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace SoundEditor_V3
{
   public class Fourier
   {

        //FOURIER
        //N = number of samples
        //s is the array of samples(data)
        //amp is the array where the complex result will be written to
        //start is the where in the array to start
        public void DFT(byte[] s, int N, ref Complex[] amp, int start)
        {
            Complex tem = new Complex();
            int f;
            int t;

            for (f = 0; f < N; f++)
            {

                tem.real = 0;
                tem.im = 0;

                for (t = 0; t < N; t++)
                {
                    tem.real += s[t + start] * Math.Cos(2 * Math.PI * t * f / N);
                    tem.im -= s[t + start] * Math.Sin(2 * Math.PI * t * f / N);

                }
                amp[f].real = tem.real;
                amp[f].im = tem.im;

            }
        }

        //INVERSE FOURIER
        public void IDFT(Complex[] A, ref int[] s)
        {
            int N = A.Length;
            int t, f;
            double result;
            for (t = 0; t < N; t++)
            {
                result = 0;
                for (f = 0; f < N; f++)
                {
                    result += A[f].real * Math.Cos(2 * Math.PI * t * f / N) - A[f].im * Math.Sin(2 * Math.PI * t * f / N);
                }
                s[t] = (int)Math.Round(result);
            }
        }
    }
}

I'm very much stuck at the moment, any and all help would be appreciated. Thank you.
