For problem 11.2 part 2, does this need to be a Fortran code or can we use Matlab? Does the method matter?

You can't trust Matlab with the discontinuous f(t), so use your own FORTRAN (or C).

For 11.2 Part 3, are we supposed to expand f(t) into a fourier series for every interval for which we solved in Part 1?

No. In fact, the point is that if you do a Fourier series, you don't have to hassle with piecing together all those intervals.
