Hi Grigory, As part of the troubleshooting I have been doing, I used the ternary operator to set the value to zero outside of the display values: <function> x<0 ? 0 : x<180 ? $fnct_rms_fullwave : 0</function> This did not help... BR,

That data file will have been written to /home/httpd/perl/tmp/ on your server's filesystem with a file name that includes your username, and ends _plot.data. and there will also be an error message in the web server's error log file, e.g., /var/log/httpd/ssl_error_log, with your problem listed as the referer. (You'd need to ask your system administrator to look in the log files). I was able to successfully generate plots for both functions: $fnct_rms_halfwave="1/$pi * &sqrt(1/2*($pi-x) + 1/4*sin(2*x))"; $fnct_rms_fullwave="&sqrt(2/$pi) * &sqrt(1/2*($pi-x) + 1/4*sin(2*x))"; in a problem in my Authoring Space (gnuplot version: 4.4.2). You might double check that there is not a typo in the problem XML, where you refer to the function, e.g., <function>$fnct_rms_halfwave</function> Otherwise, there could be an issue with other attributes defined for the plot, aside from the functions themselves (although in most cases, LON-CAPA replaces invalid values with valid ones, before creating the _plot.data file passed to gnuplot).

It plots fine in Geogebra. Does anyone know what's going on with the gnuplot? Best regards, Gene L.
