With version below 5.2 and below, you could use *InequalityPlot*. With
version 6.0 and above, you could use *RegionPlot*.
<< "Graphics`InequalityGraphics`"
ineq = -2 < x < 3;
InequalityPlot[ineq, {x, -4, 4}, {y, -10, 10},
PlotRange -> {{-10, 10}, All}, ImageSize -> 400,
Axes -> {Automatic, None}]
ineq = x <= -2 || x >= 3;
InequalityPlot[ineq, {x, -10, 10}, {y, -10, 10},
PlotRange -> {{-10, 10}, All}, ImageSize -> 400,
Axes -> {Automatic, None}]
(* 6.0 and above *)
ineq = -2 < x < 3;
RegionPlot[ineq, {x, -4, 4}, {y, -10, 10},
PlotRange -> {{-10, 10}, All}, Axes -> {Automatic, None},
Frame -> None]
