hi guys
tell me what you think of these:
1)two horizontal rays at heights 3 and 1:
y=2+sgn(x)
this can be generalized to two horizontal rays of heights a and b with the formula being:
2)two parallel non-horizontal rays at heights 1 and -1:
y=x+sgn(x)
this can be generalized to two parallel non-horizontal rays at heights a and b with the formula:
but can also be generalized to two non-parallel non-horizontal rays at heights a and b with the formula:
3)i have also find a way to plot two parallel lines(horizontal or vertical),but unfortunately wolfram won't plot this function.
for two vertical lines there are 3 different formulas depending where we want the lines to be.i will give the formula for when the two lines are on the right of the y-axis:

I can not see anything, can you fix the tags?

Hi;
Sometimes it is convenient to use piecewise functions.

yes,but i looked for ways to do it with only one function.
is there to merge a three-part piecewise function into one?

e.g.:
f(x)={(-1 when x<1,0 when x∈(-1,1),1 when x>1)

hi bobbym
i don't know what to do,but you could try entering that into W|A yourself.

I would have suggested Geogebra, it comes with Maxima and with latexing capabilities.

hi bobbym
i think i have Geogebra on my desktop computer,and it's very good.i like that i'm able to give out commands instead of drawing everything "by hand" although i think that the latter is better.
but anyway Maxima by itself is not bad at all except for some few minor incapabilities.what i would like to do is find a way to solve recursions and then use the function that i get a a solution as a function on its own.

I do not know what Maxima's capabilities for solving recurrences is offhand. They are solved by two methods, generating functions and the auxiliary polynomial.

i know them both.for some of them i like GFs more,but for some too hard i like using the AP.

Generally, like DE's only some of them can be solved for.
