Hmmmm. Not sure about intuition. A sine wave with 16 sampled points
will end up like a linked list of edges. Saving that to file and
resampling at 128 will only add points to the straight lines. It will
not create curves as per the original. It cannot. How would it know it
was a sine wave and not a guitar tone when it had to process basically
what was a robotic tone ?
There's one thing clear though. If you have
a sine wave with say 16
sampling points, much of the curves will be lost. If this is saved
to a file and the file is resampled with 128 sampling points, it
will not add the curves. The original is gone, the resampling does
not know about the original source, it cannot and it will not make
it up.
Although it seems counter-intuitive that actually is quite wrong!
