[LON-CAPA-users] Piecewise Linear Functions

[Justin Gray]

Hi Gene,

To answer your first question, here is a sample piecewise-defined function
in Gnuplots:

<gnuplot width="400" solid="0" plotcolor="monochrome" gridlayer="off"
bmargin="default" font="9" alttag="dynamically generated plot"
bgcolor="xffffff" texfont="22" transparent="off" plottype="Cartesian"
rmargin="default" gridtype="Cartesian" minor_ticscale="0.5"
fontface="sans-serif" grid="on" align="middle" texwidth="93" height="300"
border="on" samples="1000" fgcolor="x000000" major_ticscale="1"
tmargin="default" lmargin="default" fillstyle="empty">
    <axis yzero="off" xformat="on" xmin="-10.0" yformat="on"
color="x000000" ymax="10.0" ymin="-10.0" xmax="10.0" xzero="off" />
    <curve
         linestyle="lines"
         color="x000000"
         pointtype="1"
         linetype="solid"
         linewidth="1"
         name=""
         limit="closed"
         pointsize="1" >
        <function>x < 0 ? -x : x**2</function>
    </curve>
</gnuplot>

Best,
Justin
