Example 32.4 Illustration of Spectral Analysis

This example illustrates the use of spectral analysis.

The following statements perform a spectral analysis on the SUNSPOT dataset. The periodogram is displayed as a function of the period and frequency in Output 32.4.1. The estimated spectral density together with its 50% confidence limits are displayed in Output 32.4.2.
