The FOURIER function is only defined for sym objects, so one or more of g,
y, or w must be a sym object. That means F will be a sym object as well,
and when you call PLOT two lines down from here ...

you receive this message, because PLOT doesn't know how to convert the sym
object into a double array for plotting. To correct this, you will need to
convert the sym object into a double array. The easiest way to do this,
if
the expression F does not contain any instances of symbolic variables, is to
use double(F). If it does contain symbolic variables, use SUBS to
substitute values into that expression (and call DOUBLE on that result if
necessary.) Alternately, the EZPLOT function accepts sym objects and plots
them, so you could use that instead of PLOT.
Actually, thinking about this a little more, I don't think you want to use
FOURIER in this manner. Look in the M-file help for FOURIER -- it gives an
example that uses the Heaviside function directly, rather than passing a
vector of data to FOURIER.
