What have we accomplished?

• Signal classification

• Symmetry, periodicity, energy/power for
  continuous-time signals

• Signal representation using basic signals
  (unit-step, impulse, ramp, exponentials)

Where do we go from here?

• Connect signals and systems

• Develop theory that approximates behavior of
  most systems

• Time and frequency analysis
