what do you mean by having a "3" in them? Do you mean 3 be a digit in the decimal representation of x? Maybe this one work!! f[x_] := Boole[MemberQ[IntegerDigits[x, 10], 3]]; g[x_] := Sum[f[i], {i, 1, x}]/x; Plot[ g[x] , {x, 1, 100}] The graph looks like a graph of a piece-wise defined function. chekad On Nov 25, 6:22 am, Craig Reed <tharkun... at publicspam.com> wrote: > Hi - > > I'm trying to get Mathematica 5.2 to graph a function which is the ratio of > integers which have a '3' in them.
