Extend on with period two. Its Fourier coefficients in the basis are , , and , by integration by parts on . Thus
Its even part is the periodic extension of and its odd part is the Fourier series of a periodic sawtooth for . The cosine terms converge absolutely and uniformly; the sine terms account for the jump at odd integers. At each jump, the full Fourier series has value , the average of the two one-sided limits and .
