On the open interval, . It is an odd function there, so its constant and cosine coefficients vanish; assigned values at the endpoints do not affect these integrals. For its sine coefficient, integration by parts givesConsequentlyThe endpoint qualification matters. The periodic has a jump discontinuity at every odd integer, with one-sided limits . By the Dirichlet-Jordan convergence theorem, the Fourier series converges to their average, zero, there, not to the assigned value . The integration by parts argument also avoids assuming unrestricted termwise differentiation of the first series.
