# scipy.fftpack.shift

`scipy.fftpack.``shift`(x, a, period=None, _cache={})

  Shift periodic sequence x by a: y(u) = x(u+a).

  If x_j and y_j are Fourier coefficients of periodic functions x and y, respectively, then:

      y_j = exp(j*a*2*pi/period*sqrt(-1)) * x_f

  Parameters: | x : array_like The array to take the pseudo-derivative from. a : float Defines the parameters of the sinh/sinh pseudo-differential period : float, optional The period of the sequences x and y. Default period is `2*pi`.
