I don't know why it doesn't work; however, this works:
Plot[Evaluate[{Range[3]}],{x,0,1}];

I don't get it.
It boils down to plotting multiple lines:
Plot[{1,2,3},{x,0,1}] works.
That Plot[Range[3],{x,0,1}] does not work
I understand (non-standard evaluation in
Plot), but what is the problem with
Plot[Evaluate[Range[3]],{x,0,1}] ?
Why does Evaluate not do its job for Range?
It does work with Table as in
Plot[Evaluate[Table[i,{i,3}]],{x,0,1}]
I changed the Attributes of Range to match
Table's, that did not fix it.
Some deeper reason or just a bug?
I am using Mathematica 4.0.1, W2k
