#' Nuttall-defined minimum 4-term Blackman-Harris window
#'
#' Return the filter coefficients of a Blackman-Harris window defined by Nuttall
#' of length \code{n}.
#'
#' The window is minimum in the sense that its maximum sidelobes are minimized.
#' The coefficients for this window differ from the Blackman-Harris window
#' coefficients computed with \code{blackmanharris} and produce slightly lower
#' sidelobes.
#'
#' @param n Window length, specified as a positive integer.
#' @param method Character string. Window sampling method, specified as:
#' \describe{
#'   \item{"symmetric"}{(Default). Use this option when using windows for filter
#'   design.}
#'   \item{"periodic"}{This option is useful for spectral analysis because it
#'   enables a windowed signal to have the perfect periodic extension implicit
#'   in the discrete Fourier transform. When \code{periodic} is specified, the
#'   function computes a window of length \code{n + 1} and returns the first
#'   \code{n} points.}
#' }
#'
#' @return Nuttall-defined Blackman-Harris window, returned as a vector.
