# scipy.fftpack.ifft

`scipy.fftpack.``ifft`(x, n=None, axis=-1, overwrite_x=0)

  ifft(x, n=None, axis=-1, overwrite_x=0) -> y

  Return inverse discrete Fourier transform of arbitrary type sequence x.

  The returned complex array contains
    [y(0),y(1),...,y(n-1)]
  where
    y(j) = 1/n sum[k=0..n-1] x[k] * exp(sqrt(-1)*j*k* 2*pi/n)

  Optional input: see fft.__doc__
