The most blatant problem is an extra pair of brackets. Don't confuse brackets [] with parentheses () or curly brackets {} which all have different meanings to Mathematica. Not to be harsh, but it looks to me like to need to read the manual. Plot[Sin[x]^(1/3), {x, -10, 10}] If you're looking for a different result try: Plot[Abs[Sin[x]^(1/3)], {x, -10, 10}] Plot[Re[Sin[x]^(1/3)], {x, -10, 10}] Try not to send so many messages to the list. Instead, hold off, and send all your questions in one message, lest you perturb someone. Paul >How do I plot this. I must not be entering it correctly.
