{{{
I am trying to understand the behaviour of the option exclude in plot()
when a range of values is included.
It looks to me that if a simple range like "exclude=[pi..2*pi]" is used
and the function is defined and real-valued in that range then the end
points and integer points between are excluded from the plot, whilst if
the function is not real-valued in the range, e.g. "sin(x)^cos(x)", then
the whole range is excluded. However, if several ranges are specified
then when the function is real-valued the behaviour is like that for a
single range, whilst if the function is not real-valued then the graph
*is* plotted, incorrectly, for ranges after the first. For example the
graph of "plot(sin(x)^cos(x),(x,0,4*pi),exclude=[pi..2*pi,3*pi..4*pi])"
contains a straight line between 3*pi and 4*pi. Surely this cannot be the
intended behaviour?
}}}
Also, it can even happen for the first range.
