There are many sufficient conditions for Fourier series to converge.  Here are some: f and f' are piecewise continuous;   f is pieceise smooth; f is piecewise continuous with finite one-sided  limits at the endpoints of each subinterval; f is pieceise continuous with each piece monotone.

If f is continous at c, the Fourier series for x=c converges to f(c).
If f is not continous at c, the Fourier series for x=c converges to"FourierNotes_4.gif".
