Hi, something like : ParametricPlot3D[ If[t < 10^(1 - g)/(1 - g), {t, g, 0}, {t, g, 10^(1 - g)/(1 - g)}], {g, 0.5, 1}, {t, 0, 10}, AxesLabel -> {"x", "y", ""}, BoxRatios -> {1, 1, 1}, Compiled -> False] ? Regards Jens > I *meant* to use the following example: > Suppose > x(t)=(10^(1-g)-(1-g)*t)^(1/(1-g)) > where 0.5<g<1 (say). > I want to simulate this function x(t) for varying t ... specifically, > 0<=t<=10^(1-g)/(1-g) > so that x(t) remains *real* for all t.
