  • cdbl.png x —

    x is any real number.

  • idbl.png square(x) —

    square(x) is the value of square(x) for the given value of x.

    • The following equation defines the square function.

    square(x) = 1, if 2n ≤ x < 2n + 1 and 0 elsewhere,where n is an integer.
    Note You can define more complex functions by varying and combining the Step Function, Spike Function, and Square Function VIs, respectively.

    The following illustration shows the graph for square(x) * square(x – 0.8) in the interval (–4.0, 4.0).
