Fourier Transforms – The Math Trick Behind MP3s, J...
It's not actually a finite set of numbers - a continuous Fourier transform would have an infinite number of amplitudes, for every possible frequency.
However, you can very closely approximate most curves with a relatively small number of amplitudes.
