%PSINC   Periodic Sinc function (Dirichlet function)
%   Usage:  f=psinc(L,n);
%
%   PSINC(L,n) computes the periodic Sinc function of length L with
%   n-1 local extrema. The DFT of the periodic Sinc function is the
%   periodic rectangle, PRECT, of length n.
%
%   Examples:
%   ---------
%
%   This figure displays a the periodic sinc function with 6 local extremas:
%
%     plot(psinc(30,7));
