Microsoft Mathematics, Cannot plot a piecewise function?

Question

Does anyone know if there is a method or way to plot a piecewise function on Mathematics similar to a TI -84s (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esGDDikDrsc). Or is it missing that ability? Or do you have to set something in settings a certain way?

Answer 1

Did you actually read my question?

Probably, but the contract "support engineers" here have a habit of providing answers to questions that haven't been asked.   I really know nothing about Microsoft Math and thus can't provide a direct answer, but I think if you do a Google search for "Microsoft Mathmatics stepwise function" (no quotes) you'll see that it apparently can be done, after a fashion, and not very well.   Sorry I couldn't offer more help, but maybe someone else will come along with a more definitive answer.

Thank-you, I can use that for now. Wish there was a way for them to update it to 5.0 or something. Or at-least submit suggestions
